Spaghetti n.12 (12 x 1 kg) De Cecco

Description:
"Spaghetti n° 12 De Cecco" 
Historically, there is an official trace of the name 'spaghetto' in the first dictionary of the Italian language by Nicolò Tommaseo and Bernardo Bellini (1819). Here, 'spaghetto' is included as a 'singular masculine diminutive of spago' and is mentioned as 'Minestra di Spaghetti: which are pastas of the thickness of a small string and long, like sopracapellini'. A curiosity: in 1957, the BBC broadcast the first documentary on spaghetti production and the next day the TV studios were jammed with phone calls from viewers asking for the names of spaghetti producers and distributors to buy them. Spaghetti are so versatile that they can be served with any condiment, from fish to meat, from vegetables to cheese, but they are also excellent eaten plain dressed only with extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese.

More than a hundred years ago, a story began in Abruzzo that, like every great enterprise, is made up of people and passions. It is the story of the De Cecco brothers' mill and pasta factory. For over 130 years, they have been producing pasta that is synonymous with quality and pleasure all over the world. 
This story originates from before the Unification of Italy, when in Fara San Martino, a small village at the foot of the Majelle, Don Nicola De Cecco produced 'the best flour in the area' in his stone mill. 

As had been the case for generations, 'Uncle Nicola' passed on his art and passion to his son Filippo Giovanni, who began a new chapter in the history of the De Cecco family by dedicating himself to the production of pasta: thus the De Cecco brothers' mill and pasta factory were born. In 1886. 

Until then, pasta was always dried in the sun, the only way to guarantee the high quality and durability of the product. Thanks to this wise intuition, new markets opened up for De Cecco and the internationalisation of the company began. 
In 1908, the Abruzzese peasant woman with the sheaves of wheat became the company's symbol. After the Second World War, the growth phase began with which De Cecco reached its current expansion: the factory, destroyed by German bombing, was rebuilt and production restarted, increasingly oriented towards the international market.
