Fregula – Fregula A Sa Antiga

This Fregula is made with weath semolina, eggs, safforn, salt and water.

Fregula is a type of Sardinian traditional pasta. The majority of fregula that you can find in the supermarket is made in an industrial way (the grains are identical form one to another) and they are the most common type that actually you can find in the market. Fregula A Sa Antiga, however, is handmade as you can see from the different shape of its grains.

The durum weath’s semolina is cultivated and minced in Sardinia. The eggs come from raise on the ground chickens and the saffron is from Sardinia.

There is always a secret behind each product. The secret of family rites, the magic of the hands that cuddle the semolina and the rotating sieve. Those are the secrets that lies behind Fregula A Sa Antiga.

In the ancient time our great grandmothers and grandmothers used to remember the dishes’ recepies by heart and they used to measure out the doses just by looking at the ingredients. The family of Monica and Giuliano, Fregula a Sa Antiga’s owners, used to do the same. “The secret of the success is based on passion, craftsmanship and 100% sardinian ingredients” Monica said to us when we met her for the first time.
