Spinosi is an artisan supplier in Italy run by a family which has been making pasta since 1933. The dried egg pastas, available through IB Food, contain a minimum of 33% whole eggs from hens fed on a diet enriched with omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (vital for health) and vitamin E - this combination is said to give a rich texture and taste. The range includes spinach fettucine, papardelle and tagliolini with black squid ink - plus spinosini, a small square spaghetti with a delicate texture said to suit seafood and light sauces.
PRICES: from £3.21 per 250g packet of egg tagliolini (in 20 x 250g-packet cartons) to £3.72 per packet of squid ink tagliolini (in 20 x 250g-packet cartons)
