October 2025 - Artisanal Pasta
The Joy of Handcrafted Pasta
Few things bring comfort like a bowl of pasta on a cool autumn evening — especially when every noodle, sauce, and drizzle is made with care. This month’s Artisanal Pasta Box celebrates tradition, craftsmanship, and flavor — a love letter to Italy’s most beloved comfort food.
💡 Fun Fact
Italians eat an average of 55 pounds of pasta each year! That’s the equivalent of 55 boxes of spaghetti or over 200 heaping plates of pasta. (Now that’s amore.)
🍝 Greenomic — “Good Hair Day” Treccia D’Oro Pasta
Umbria, Italy
Known for its philosophy of “Green meets Gastronomy,” Greenomic combines first-class quality with true Italian artistry. Their Good Hair Day Treccia D’Oro is a showstopper — hand-braided “plaits” of durum wheat semolina pasta made through the traditional al bronzo method. The result is a beautifully textured, golden pasta that’s as striking to look at as it is satisfying to eat.
Whether gifted, displayed, or served for a special dinner, it’s pasta that turns a meal into a moment.
🍅 Crispino — Yellow Tomato Sauce for Amateurs
Calabria, Italy
Since 1979, the Crispino family has carried forward their Calabrian tradition of crafting bold, authentic flavors with simplicity and pride. Their Pomodori Giallo “Yellow Tomato” Sauce captures the sweetness and sunshine of southern Italy — smooth, vibrant, and gently sweet with less acidity than red tomatoes.
Perfect for elevating weeknight pasta, layering into stews, or topping pizza, this golden sauce delivers warmth, color, and unmistakable Italian soul.
👑 Kensington Food Co. — “Little Queens” Reginette Pasta
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
A nod to Italian royalty, Kensington Food Co.’s Little Queens “Reginette” Pasta features ribbon-like edges and a textured surface that holds sauce perfectly. Crafted in Pennsylvania with traditional Italian techniques — bronze-die extruded and slow-dried for that ideal al dente bite — this pasta brings elegance to every forkful.
Each batch reflects Kensington’s commitment to artisan craftsmanship and local pride — blending American creativity with Italian mastery.
🧄 MNMLST — Garlic Pasta Sauce
Austin, Texas
MNMLST believes in simplicity done right. Their Garlic Pasta Sauce uses only the cleanest, fewest ingredients — ripe tomatoes, roasted garlic, and extra virgin olive oil — to deliver rich, balanced flavor. Certified Non-GMO, gluten-free, and preservative-free, it’s comfort in a jar for cozy October nights.
Try it with Kensington’s Reginette or a swirl of Greenomic Treccia D’Oro — proof that less really can be more.
