Toasted Fregola 500g
Fregola is a small pasta made in southern parts of Sardinia, Italy, particularly in and around Cagliari. It is made from semolina flour and water, rubbed together by hand, before being dried then toasted.
Similar in stature to the North African Berkoukes, it is believed that Fregola was introduced to Sardinia by Liguarians on their way home from Tabarka, Tunisia, where the Genovese had a colony from 1540 until 1742.
Usages:
- It works well in soups and salads
- With a sauce or in risotto-style dishes called Succú
