Fregola sarda media

Wenn Sie mehr darüber erfahren möchten

The fregola, in Sardinian fregula is a typical Sardinian artisan pasta which comes form Campidano of Cagliari and Oristano. It is a handmade durum wheat semolina pasta obtained by producing little irregular and rustic spheres with a very original taste due to the natural drying and toasting. 

In Sardinia, the fregola is eaten with fish soups: the most famous receipt is  “fregola con le arselle” (fregola with clams), but it is eaten with tomatoes and meat sauce, too. The simpler way to cook it is boiling it as the pasta and then cooking until cream with a sauce.  A more polished way is cooking it as saffron risotto, or risotto with sausages and artichokes.
