Our story begins like that of so many of our ancestors, proudly displaying our passion for a heritage rich in old world cultural values, work ethics, faith, family devotion and sheer joy of life. We are the 3rd generation Fresina family to make handmade pasta. Since 1926 when our family entered the United States through New Orleans, LA, we have continued the tradition of hard work with passion and pride. In 1991, we moved all the original equipment to our present location here in Baton Rouge, LA. We still make pasta the way our family did in Italy many years ago, the delicate' method. Our pasta is not dried like commercial pasta, with heat. We have drying rooms where our pasta is air-dried for a minimum of 3 days. Therefore, it dries much more tender and takes a lot less time to cook. (Our capellini (angel hair), takes 60 seconds to cook al dente'.) Every stick/screen of pasta is taken down, weighed and packed by hand with care. In addition to our own handmade products, you will discover imported products that are authentic and hand selected from ports all across Italy. Our mission is to bring the freshest and best Italian products to your table. Stop by our shop if you're in Baton Rouge and sample some of our products, listen to Italian music and share stories and recipes with us and our customers.
