Like an Italian take on couscous, Fregola (known as fregula in Sardinia) is coarsely textured balls of pasta that have been rolled by hand, dried with a mix of saffron and water and then toasted in a wood-burning oven for nutty, complex flavor. The Rustichella d'Abruzzo's Fregola is one of the most appreciate pasta shapes in 70 countries in the world: United States, Brazil and Germany particularly. The dense, chewy pasta is excellent both hot and cold - serve up a steaming bowl of Bon Appétit Magazine Fregola with Clams, toss warm fregola with a simple dressing of colatura and extra virgin olive oil or serve cold or at room temperature in a salad with tuna and grilled vegetables. Now.. it's time to eat! 😉
