From the brand
Morelli Pasta
Creating Gourmet Italian Pasta in Tuscany Since 1860.
Classic & Innovative Pastas
Artisanal Pasta Creation
For 5 generations we have slowly dried and bronze-die cut our pasta using traditional recipes.
The ancient Morelli Pasta Factory was founded in 1860 and is a fifth-generation family business. We produce a vast range of specialties, using ancient craft techniques, free of both preservatives and coloring agents. The result is truly wholesome pasta, with a wonderfully rich flavor and full consistency.
What makes our products unique?
We reincorporate the wheat germ into the semolina of some of our pasta to give it a unique taste and a wonderful aroma.
What problem are we solving?
We specialize in classical regional pasta as well as more innovative flavored pasta. All of our raw ingredients are selected with care and use either Tuscan or Italian wheat to ensure the highest quality.
How do we create our pasta?
We use artisanal processes in which mixing is done slowly. The bronze dies used to cut the pasta give it a perfect consistency and the drying is done slow and low, for at least 36 hours.

GOURMET ITALIAN PICI – Our pici pasta from Italy is handmade with durum wheat semolina from Tuscany, it is thicker than spaghetti, but thinner than a pencil and is quite dense and absorbs sauces well to give a more succulent and full-bodied flavor to your cooking
UNIQUE FLAVOR – Morelli pasta is unusual as it includes the semolina of the wheat in the pasta in order to create a beautifully flavored heirloom wheat pasta with a rich, nutty bite
EAT HEALTHY – Pici Pasta di Semola di Grano Duro is a thin pasta made with durum wheat that is high in protein, making this artisanal pasta a great way to get more protein into your day and stay full for longer.
VERSATILE PASTA – Used in classic Italian dishes with a touch of olive oil, or in more complex meals such as meat ragu, game sauces, mushrooms, tomato and garlic sauce, pici pasta nests are highly versatile
MADE IN ITALY – Authentic Italian pasta produced in the ancient Morelli Pasta Factory since 1860. Handmade made in small batches to insure high quality.

Very good
I love the texture and the taste. Defiantly feel the difference from other pastas. Try it.
Steven S Wolszczak –
Great but must be cooked thoroughly
Bigoli is classic Veneto pasta. It is particularly designed to hold greasy meat sauces. Because this pasta is dried for shipping and extra thick, you MUST cook it at least 25 minutes and then judging it’s doneness by taste. When you get it, cook a test batch and pull a noodle at 25, 27, 30, 32 minutes to understand this pasta. When it is just short of al dente, pull it from the boiling water and add it to your already heated meat sauce. Cook the bigoli in the meat sauce until it has absorbed some and is well flavored and thoroughly cooked with just a little bit of tooth (al dente in theory, but this pasta al dente will feel different than thinner pastas al dente due to it’s thickness. It’s delicious and makes your 4 hour bolognese which was good with spaghetti, GREAT with the proper noodle.

product is best
I have ordered several di8fferent brands of pasta and for each they are excellent- They are however priceyThey are in cost two to three time for cost than the supermarket brands. But compared to the Italian pasta the taste like glue. So I will take the Italian brands every time

Great Pics noodles
These are delicious thick round noodles from Tuscany. Despite taking 20 minutes to cook, they have a great al dente texture and taste!

Must add additional cooking time.

Nice thick quality noodles that really absorb the flavor of whatever sauce you use. Much better than anything you would ever buy in a store

Worth Every Penny!
Tough to give a complete and thorough review of the product/service – I mean basically, I ordered some pasta, it was exactly what I wanted, it arrived quickly, and it was in good condition. Perfect. What else can I say? Well, now that I think about it, I can say what I did with it. Here is a picture of the final âproductâ ⦠AND IT WAS DELICIOUS! I was trying to duplicate a dish that I had in Florence â basically a pasta with mushrooms and prosciutto â so I used your Pici di Toscana, which as you know is a hand-rolled pasta that originates in the province of Siena in Tuscany. For the mushrooms, I used a combination of Crimini, Portobello, Shiitake and Oyster and sautéed them with thyme, butter and olive oil and then added shallots and prosciutto. I then experimented with different types of flavor profiles (including veal demi-glace, heavy cream and of course more butter â all too heavy.) I think I made six different options before I decided that a light sauce was what I were looking for and used chicken stock seasoned with thyme, marjoram and oregano and some pasta water instead of something heavy. I topped it with crumbled fried prosciutto, a drizzle of black truffle oil, and if you look closely, you will see a sprinkling of fresh thyme blossoms. P.S. Thank you for a great product!
