Beyond the Soup: Rustichella d'Abruzzo Orzo at Olive This Olive That - A Shape Full of Possibilities

Imagine a spoonful of sunshine.  Golden orzo, plump and glistening with olive oil, mingles with vibrant vegetables in a hearty minestrone. Each tiny grain bursts with flavor, offering a delightful textural contrast to the soft vegetables and rich broth. This isn't just an ingredient in soup; it's a culinary chameleon waiting to be explored.

This is Rustichella d'Abruzzo Orzo from Olive This Olive That, a shape steeped in tradition and ready to transform your meals from ordinary to extraordinary.

A Legacy of Artisanal Excellence:  Hailing from the Abruzzo region of Italy, Rustichella d'Abruzzo has been crafting exceptional pastas since 1924. Their orzo is a testament to this dedication. Made with high-quality durum wheat semolina and pure spring water, it boasts a unique texture and flavor that surpasses anything you've experienced before.

Bronze-Drawn for a Symphony of Flavor: Unlike mass-produced orzo, Rustichella d'Abruzzo's tiny grains are bronze-drawn. This traditional technique creates a rougher surface, allowing sauces, broths, and dressings to cling beautifully. Every little orzo piece becomes a flavor carrier, ensuring a perfect balance of pasta and its companions in every bite.

Slow-Dried Perfection: Patience is key at Rustichella d'Abruzzo. Their orzo is air-dried for up to 56 hours at low temperatures. This slow drying process allows the pasta to develop a deeper flavor and a more al dente texture,  resulting in a truly versatile ingredient for any dish.

Unlocks a World of Flavor Possibilities:  Rustichella d'Abruzzo orzo goes far beyond the realm of soup.  Think vibrant salads, flavorful pilafs, and even surprising sweet treats. Its unique shape and ability to hold flavor make it a true kitchen essential.
