Senatore Cappelli is a durum wheat cultivar obtained by the geneticist Nazareno Strampelli at the beginning of the twentieth century, thanks to his experience and various experiments; this variety of wheat was dedicated to the Abruzzese Marquis Raffaele Cappelli, Senator of the Kingdom of Italy, who in the last years of the nineteenth century had initiated the agricultural transformations in Puglia and supported Strampelli in his business. Cappelli is still grown after almost a century in particular in southern Italy (Basilicata, Calabria, Puglia, Sardinia) and has become the symbol of "gourmet pasta", given its perfect cooking and consistency; it is currently used for the production of pasta, bread, pizza and niche and superior quality products, often Bio.

Antico Senatore Cappelli wheat has important anti-inflammatory and anti-cholesterol abilities and is very rich in antioxidants, flavonoids, vitamins, amino acids and minerals; its main characteristics are its good adaptability to different types of land, the special pasta-making quality but above all its very high yield in the field. It gives the pasta a bright yellow color, perfect digestibility and a truly optimal cooking resistance, despite the short time required (6 minutes), and a light and delicate flavor. Also suitable for vegan and vegetarian diets, these Daisies are bronze drawn through an artisanal and 100% organic process.

These special Senatore Cappelli Durum Wheat Daisies have a refined, well-balanced taste and go perfectly with simple ingredients, such as a vegetable sauce, with peppers, with zucchini and tomato or with a good Bolognese sauce: in this way we will enhance even more the quality of this excellent ancient grain pasta, without overwhelming its aromas and perfumes.
