Martelli Fusilli di Pisa – Italian Durum Wheat Pasta 500g

Martelli has been crafting pasta in Pisa since 1914, and their fusilli di Pisa represents an uncompromising approach to Italian pasta-making. Made from 100% Italian durum wheat semolina and dried slowly at low temperatures, each strand holds its shape and texture through cooking, absorbing sauce rather than turning to starch.

About this product

Fusilli di Pisa is a short, tightly coiled pasta that catches and clings to chunky sauces, creamy dressings, and brothy preparations. The slow-drying process — a hallmark of Martelli's method — creates a rougher surface than industrial competitors, allowing sauce to cling naturally without excess oil or starch. This is the pasta that Italian home cooks reach for when sauce matters.

How to enjoy

• Toss with a simple tomato ragù or aglio e olio for the sauce to coat evenly.
• Mix into a creamy mushroom or seafood sauce; the coils trap liquid beautifully.
• Use in a cold pasta salad with fresh vegetables and a vinaigrette.
• Pair with light, delicate sauces to let the wheat flavor shine through.

⭐ Why we love this

Martelli's slow-drying method is a dying art — most industrial pasta dries hot and fast, but this approach preserves the wheat's natural flavor and creates that crucial rough texture that catches sauce like no other. It's why Italian nonnas have trusted Martelli since 1914.

🍷 Pairing suggestion

Serve with a classic Tuscan ragù and a glass of Chianti Classico, or toss with fresh clams and white wine for a seafood-forward dish. The fusilli's grip on sauce makes it ideal for rustic Italian trattoria fare.

📍 From Spain

Crafted in Pisa, Italy — the heart of Tuscan pasta tradition — Martelli remains one of Europe's last family-run artisanal mills, making this a genuine Italian import that respects centuries of regional expertise.
