Sicilian Linguine di Perciasacchi, made from ancient Sicilian wheat! Format: 500 g. The Perciasacchi of the Sicilian Linguine di Perciasacchi gets its name from the pointed shape of the seeds that would pierce the burlap sacks, once used for storing the harvest. It is a Sicilian durum wheat, traditionally grown in the hilly areas of the inland. The plant makes the most of water, light, and nutrient resources and is more resistant to weeds: this allows for low-environmental-impact cultivation compatible with local consumption and small rural economies. The flour of Perciasacchi, like our Sicilian Linguine di Perciasacchi, has high protein content and therefore gluten, but with low strength (low gluten index), which makes it possibly more digestible and suitable even for people sensitive to gluten. Furthermore, the not very tenacious gluten makes Perciasacchi a wheat suitable for baking, for easy-to-handle doughs. It also has a high content of microelements, such as selenium, iron, and zinc, and is rich in fiber, which has proven effectiveness in controlling cholesterol and blood sugar levels, helping to prevent numerous diseases, and polyphenols that fight free radicals. The Sicilian Linguine di Perciasacchi shows a pleasant appearance, intense color, and a unique aromatic component that makes them distinctive and good for all five senses! Properties of Sicilian Linguine di Perciasacchi: High protein value, low glycemic index, presence of minerals, vitamins E and B3, presence of selenium, an element that provides an antioxidant effect to our body. Thanks to its unique aromatic component, we recommend pairing our Sicilian Linguine di Perciasacchi with our Cuttlefish Ink! Ready for a simple, easy, and super tasty dish?
