The roots of this Wholemeal Saragolla Flour are deep in tradition

Saragolla wheat, a close relative of the famous Khorosan, is considered the quintessential durum wheat of Basilicata and Puglia. A direct descendant of ancient grains that once plied the Mediterranean, this grain was at risk of extinction, supplanted by more productive but less nutritious modern varieties. Its resilience and exceptional organoleptic qualities have made it a cornerstone of the traditional Mediterranean diet, beloved for its sweet flavor and incredibly digestible nature.

In the Nardò countryside, the Casaluce family has revived this noble lineage, recovering seeds that carry millennia of agricultural history. In ancient times, Saragolla was reserved for special occasions, used to create breads that perfumed the entire village. Today, thanks to Terre Paduli, this legacy returns to our tables, allowing us to savor a fragment of history that is renewed in every cold-ground grain.
