“People sometimes speak about supporting artisans as though it were an abstract ethical position. At Pastaio Via Corta, it becomes concrete: pay people fairly for difficult work, accept that responsibly made food will not always be cheap, and listen when someone explains why one grain, tomato, or bottle is different from another.”

THIS WEEK. Katie Parla writes the most proper description of the shop and myself in her newsletter after visiting.

Thank you Katie for understanding and highlighting the work I do and the craft. This isn’t a trend. This is my opinion and what I believe in. Respect and so much appreciation friend.

IRONIC.

What are you scared of? Knowing the truth about your food and where it comes from? Italy is the largest importer of goods especially grains. They buy from other countries including the USA! They mill the wheat there and then use it for their pasta. Shocked? Not me.

I have always offered 100% transparency on where I source and from who and why. That’s the beauty of shopping with a small artisan.

Filled pasta TODAY 8.22

Tortelli di melanzane.

An old inspired recipe from the one and only Oretta in her cookbook featuring these beautiful eggplant from Iron Ox Farm , slowly cooked with lots of extra virgin olive oil and herbs then whipped with pecorino romano + ricotta.

Serving suggestion is a tomato sauce with shaved ricotta salata and fresh torn basil on top.

TEXTURES.

The beauty of working with real flour. I can’t understand how at this point the choice to work with industrial white engineered flour is still the choice for some people who have the means to do better and buy better at home and professionally in kitchens. With the knowledge and food information out there and a whole library of access in your hand.

At this point it’s completely irresponsible as a human to be buying glyphosate sprayed grains from conventional conveyor belt heat treated milling.

Yes, wheat IS the basis of civilization. It is a NEED. It’s an intricate part of our diet. It’s important to find and look for whole grains that are grown organically and stone milled. This means it’s a fresh product and it is not meant to be shelf stable but to be USED. It’s not meant to sit on a grocery store shelf on aisle 13 for years in storage of a warehouse.

This is us supporting local food systems, local farmers growing organically and choosing risk to plant with in the helms of Mother Nature. They can plant different crops and they can succeed in a biodynamic environment instead of monocropping seeds from a big corporation and signing on to their systems of chemical treatments.
