Pétoura pasta were brought to Greece by the refugees of Asia Minor and are an especially common Greek pasta in northern Greece. Women would make these wide, flat noodles - similar to pappardelle - at the end of every summer, air-drying them under clean white sheets. Agrozimi has given a fresh twist to traditional petoura, adding spinach, beets, red peppers, and squid ink for extra flavor. Their festive, bright colors are a wonderful addition to your favorite pasta recipes. This pappardelle-like Greek pasta is bronze die-cut and naturally air-dried. Importantly, there are no preservatives, additives, artificial flavors nor colorants.
We chose Agrozimi for brothers Kostas and Yiorgos Martavaltzoglou’s love of tradition, while still daring to experiment with flavors and techniques. We were also impressed by their state-of-the-art facility and commitment to high-quality product standards, all that show in their exceptional pasta.
