I Capricci Senatore Cappelli Organic by Agricultural art

Arteagricola's Organic Senatore Cappelli Capricci are an elegant and playful example of artisanal Italian pasta, made with 100% Senatore Cappelli durum wheat semolina grown on the company's own fields. With a twisted, helical shape, 35mm long and 15mm in diameter, these capricci create natural spirals that perfectly coat the sauce in every bite. Bronze-drawing gives them their characteristic rough, porous surface, while slow drying at below 32°C preserves the aromas and proteins of the ancient grain. With a quick cooking time of 7-9 minutes, these capricci release the intense aromas of wheat, bread, and homemade pasta that make every Arte product unmistakable: the authentic flavor of innovative Italian tradition.

The roots of these Capricci are deep in tradition

The "fantasy" shapes of Italian pasta, such as capricci, strozzapreti, casarecce, pici, and cavatappi, represent the ingenuity of our artisanal pasta making: small twisted or spiral shapes born from the need to hold structured sauces and give character to the dish. Each region of Italy has its own variation, often inspired by the manual gesture of the housewife who rolled the pasta around a wire or between the palms of her hands. Capricci are part of this noble artisan tradition with a modern shape that reinterprets the art of regional spirals, combined with the excellence of Senatore Cappelli wheat selected by Nazareno Strampelli in 1915. A meeting of contemporary design and the peasant roots of Italian agriculture, grown in the Arte fields and processed with mineralized water from the Sele spring.

Choosing Capricci Senatore Cappelli means taking care of yourself

Choosing artisanal pasta made from ancient grains is a conscious move to support health and agricultural biodiversity: Senatore Cappelli has a more delicate and less tenacious gluten than modern grains, resulting in a more digestible product, even for those with non-celiac sensitivities. Whole-grain milling with wheat germ ensures a high protein content (13,5%), fiber (3,4%), and a rich micronutrient profile: potassium, iron, magnesium, calcium, selenium, sodium, and beta-carotene, as well as essential lipids, amino acids, and vitamins B and E. The mineralized water from the Sele spring, the extremely slow drying process below 32°C, and the ARTE organic certification offer consumers a closed-chain wholegrain pasta that is nutritious and profoundly respectful of the Italian terroir.

How to Best Use: Organic Senatore Cappelli Capricci

• CAPRICCI WITH NORCINA STYLE AND FULL-FULL RAGOUT
  The twisted shape is best expressed with rustic meat sauces: sautéed in a pan Organic Sausage from Tuscia crumbled with a drop of White wine, add organic cream and a generous grating of Falisco Aged Pecorino. For a vegan version, replace with Vegan Ragù with Organic Seitan and completed with White Pepper: the spirals retain every nuance of the sauce.
• CAPRICCI WITH SEASONAL VEGETABLE SAUCES AND LEGUMES
  Capricci go beautifully with sautéed vegetables: try them with Roman courgette, Organic Horn Pepper e Organic Sicilian chili pepper for a tasty summer first course. Or with Black chickpeas slowly cooked with Flat Cannara Onion e Organic dried oregano: a complete, protein-rich and fragrant first course that enhances the rusticity of the ancient Cappelli wheat.
• OVEN-BAKED CAPRICCI AND SUNDAY FIRST COURSES
  The format lends itself splendidly to oven cooking: prepare a baked pasta with Organic Grass-Fed Beef Red Ragù, cubes of Buffalo Caciocavallo and a golden crust of Organic Mountain Parmigiano Reggiano DOP 30 monthsFor a more rustic dish, gratinate them with Sicilian Broccoli boiled, a sprinkling of Organic Calabrian Red Round Chili Pepper e Pecorino with chili pepper: a heart-warming Sunday comfort food.
