Fennel and Olive Spaghettini
with Fresh Parsley
We had a nice surprise visit down at the Fresh Farm from the guys at Del Verde pasta last week. They came all the way over from Italy to say hello and as you can imagine they're pretty feisty when it comes to talking pasta. All of their pasta is made using bronze dies (i.e. it's squeezed through a bronze pasta shaper) rather than Teflon. It's a much longer process than cheaper producers use, but it means the sauce sticks to the pasta properly when you mix it. Our tip: Don't even get them started on the subject of adding olive oil to your boiling water - touchy subject!

Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.
