Wheat germ is the heart of the wheat grain, rich in flavor and nourishing active ingredients. The germ is normally removed when the grain is milled in order to improve the flour concentration and lengthen the shelf life. Pastificio Morelli uses artisan techniques to incorporate the wheat germ into the flour during the pasta production. The germ gets processed immediately, while it's still fresh, and it never has the opportunity to deteriorate. This brings out the best in flavor and healthy characteristics and gives it a particular consistency and flavor. Savor the decadence of truffles with our Wheat Germ Tagliolini. Delicious served with truffle butter and parmesan cheese.
