Pasta has a history almost as layered as lasagna. It wasn’t simply “invented” in one place at one moment, and despite the story many of us grew up hearing, Marco Polo wasn’t the guy who brought pasta to Italy.

Its history stretches across cultures and centuries—from ancient noodles and Roman doughs to Arab influence in Sicily, regional Italian traditions, and eventually the pasta and sauces we recognize today.

And that might be one of our favorite things about pasta: it has always evolved.
Today, we get to be one small part of that very long story, making artisanal pasta by hand and putting our own spin on tradition with flavors like spinach, mushroom, lemon pepper, and Calabrian chili to name a few.

A lot has changed over a few thousand years. But gathering around a really good bowl of pasta? We think that part is worth keeping.

Yes, we made pasta with stinging nettles. Meet our limited-edition Stinging Nettle Pasta, or Ortica.
Our organic stinging nettles come from the dedicated nettle patch at T.H.E. Farm in Kittery, ME. The leaves and flowers are carefully harvested and blended fresh, without additives, into a pesto that becomes part of the pasta itself.

The result is one of our most unique flavor profiles yet. Stinging nettle brings a balance of sweet and slightly bitter notes, somewhat reminiscent of broccoli rabe. It’s distinctive and earthy, but doesn’t need a complicated sauce to make it shine.
Keep it simple with butter and fresh lemon, pair it with shrimp scampi, or serve it alongside grilled zucchini and summer squash while they’re at their seasonal peak.

And just like the ingredient itself, this pasta won’t be around for long. Supplies are limited. Once it’s gone, we’ll have to wait until next year’s nettles are ready to make it again. That’s the beauty of eating with the seasons.

It’s Monday! If you can’t make it to the Beverly Farmers' Market this evening, no worries: you can now swing by Essex County Co-Op and pick up a box of L’Amore della Pasta right off the shelf!

Seeing our pasta on store shelves is a pretty big deal for our small family business. What started with handmade pasta and local farmers' markets continues to grow, one box at a time, and we’re so excited to see where it takes us.

Thank you for continuing to shop small, support local, and bring our pasta home to your table.

Meet our limited-edition Garlic Scape & Parsley Fettuccine.

It starts with fresh garlic scapes grown by Mac at Road Farm in Newbury. We bring them back from the farm, wash, trim, and prepare them before blending them into a fresh pesto with no salt or additives. That pesto goes straight into our egg pasta base along with dried parsley, bringing the flavor of the scapes right into every bite.

And if you’re expecting a big, sharp garlic flavor, you might be surprised.
Garlic scapes have a much more delicate, muted garlic flavor with fresh, herbaceous notes. The result is a pasta flavorful enough to enjoy simply with butter or olive oil while still leaving plenty of room to play with your favorite sauce.

Want to dress it up? Try it with shrimp scampi or a garlic confit cream sauce.
Last year, we brought you our Chive & Parsley pasta. This year, we’re giving another fleeting summer ingredient its moment.

This is a limited seasonal offering. Once it’s gone, it’s gone until the scapes return next year.

Two new pastas. Two locally grown ingredients. And when they’re gone, they’re gone until next year. We’re celebrating the season with two very limited-edition L’Amore Della Pasta flavors:
Garlic Scape & Parsley Fettuccine�
Stinging Nettle Fettuccine

Both start with ingredients grown by local farms and are transformed into pasta with no unnecessary additives- just fresh, seasonal ingredients incorporated right into our dough.

And we really do mean limited, only while supplies last!
This is what eating with the seasons looks like. We get one harvest, make what we can, and when the last bag sells, that’s it until next year.

Keep an eye out this week as we introduce you to each flavor in the original L'Amore della Pasta paper bag and the local farms that helped make them possible.
