Regional dishes are often a matter of dispute among Italians, whether they are professional chefs or amateur cooks, and Penne Amatriciana are no exception! Garganelli or penne, bacon or bacon, garlic, or onion; these are the main questions that anyone who is preparing to cook for the first time this recipe has to face.

It is said that this famous dish born in Amatrice was the main meal of the shepherds, but originally it was without tomato and took the name of "gricia"; this ingredient was added later when the tomatoes were imported from the Americas and the seasoning took the name of Amatriciana.

It is therefore normal that such an ancient and popular recipe has changed over time, taking on the numerous variations that are still being discussed today. What we offer here is our version, prepared with local and quality ingredients. Because we think that in reality the recipe of spaghetti all' Amatriciana does not divide Italy, but unites it in the name of the goodness of a dish with a simple soul and a strong character ... just like who created it!
