This is what characterizes the pici you find in this specific store:<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udf5d Characteristics of Bottega Senese’s Pici.<\/h3>\n

Bottega Senese selects pasta that strictly respects local tradition, focusing on the quality of Tuscan raw materials:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    Composition:<\/b> These are durum wheat semolina<\/b> pici (not egg pici, as the most authentic Sienese recipe calls for), selected from small artisan pasta makers in the area that use local grains.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Format:<\/b> Typically sold in 500g<\/b> packages, they are presented as “spaghettoni” dried at a low temperature. This slow process keeps the organoleptic properties of the grain intact and provides the rough texture needed to hold the sauce.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Price:<\/b> In the store and on the online shop, the cost is around \u20ac4.50<\/b> per pack, an honest price for a product from a controlled supply chain.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \ud83d\udccd Where it is located and what to expect<\/h3>\n

    La bottega Senese is a true treasure chest of Tuscan excellence (IGP and DOP). In addition to classic pici, it is the ideal place to compose the “perfect kit.”<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. \n

      The Pici:<\/b> The solid, wrinkled base.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    2. \n

      The Sauce:<\/b> We often sell paired with the legendary Val di Chiana Aglione<\/b> or Cinta Senese<\/b> ragu, products that complete the experience.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    3. \n

      The Wine:<\/b> Since they are also a stocked wine shop, they can recommend a Chianti Classico<\/b> or Brunello<\/b> to go with the dish.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \ud83d\udca1 A little advice for preparation.<\/h3>\n

      The dry artisanal pici you find in the store have a very firm texture. When cooking them, be sure to use plenty of water and don’t be in a hurry<\/b>: the cooking time may vary but remain generous to allow the heart of the spaghetti to cook evenly without losing its “al dente” texture.<\/p>\n
