Straight from the Adriatic Sea
Cavatelli Nero di Seppia is a masterpiece born from the depths of the Adriatic Sea, thanks to its secret ingredient: squid ink from the freshest squids sourced directly from the Adriatic's pristine waters. This jet-black ink infuses the pasta with an oceanic essence, creating a unique and captivating flavor profile that pays homage to the coastal heritage of Monopoli.
Quality
At Antica Masseria Caroli, they believe that true artistry lies in the details. They take pride in their small-scale production methods, allowing them to focus on every batch's quality. Every production step is visually controlled to ensure the highest possible quality. Their Orecchiette Condite is made with precision and passion, ensuring a taste that's simply unparalleled.
Drying at low temperature
Drying Cavatelli Nero di Seppia at low temperatures is a critical step in preserving the delicate flavors and nutritional value of the ingredients. This gentle drying process allows the pasta to retain its exquisite black hue and superb taste, ensuring that the essence of the Adriatic Sea remains intact in every bite. Small-scale production is essential for achieving this precision, as it allows for close monitoring and meticulous care throughout the drying process. Large-scale production can often compromise this delicate balance, resulting in a loss of flavor and quality.
Combinations
The rich, briny notes of squid ink in this pasta make it a perfect match for a variety of sauces and ingredients. For a taste of the Adriatic, consider tossing it with a simple garlic and olive oil sauce, or elevate it with a seafood medley featuring fresh clams, mussels, and shrimp. For a burst of color and flavor, a cherry tomato and basil sauce provides a delightful contrast to the pasta's jet-black hue.
