Centellino Selection | Centellino decanter & food products from Tuscany: coffee, cereals, legumes, bitter liqueur and homemade pasta.
Fusilli can be seen as a modern version of the Sicilian busiata, or of maccheroni inferriati, two typical dishes from Southern Italy; it is a kind of fresh pasta made with flour and water, which receives its peculiar spiral shape by being wrapped around either a stem of grass (the Sicilian “busa”– Ampelodesmos Mauritanicus) or around a special tool, similar to a knitting needle.
Modern Fusilli was born overseas in 1924, when Guido Tanzi, an Italian who had emigrated to New York, patented a machine especially designed to produce fusilli. This made the production of this kind of pasta much easier and more economic.
Fusilli is perfect for any occasion, and can be enjoyed with any sauce that taste and creativity can suggest.

The semolina with which our pasta is made comes from the milling of cereals that are grown exclusively in Tuscany, and that are cultivated with traditional methods, such as crop rotation, and other agronomic practices aiming to respect both soil and environment, essential prerequisites for a high-quality product.
The semolina is selected with special attention to the quality rather than the quantity of gluten it contains, in that gluten represents the major part of the proteins that are present in pasta.
Our pasta is made in small amounts, and is the product of accurate craftsmanship: a dough made with excellent ingredients; bronze extruders (perforated bronze plates that cut and shape the pasta) that guarantee its correct roughness; slow drying (drying time varies according to the pasta format) at low temperature (between 30 and 35° C / 86 – 95° F).
