\n Mezzi Canneroni is for the discerning palate.
\nHow production affects pasta quality
\nItalian ingredients meet artisan methods.
\nDurum wheat semolina gives this pasta its bold wheat flavor and firm texture. Unlike mass-produced pastas, bronze-die extrusion creates a rough surface for superior sauce adhesion.
\nSlow drying at low temperatures enhances flavor and structural integrity. This contrasts with high-temperature drying, which can destroy flavor and weaken the pasta.
\nPastificio dei Campi uses these methods to ensure every piece of Mezzi Canneroni offers a consistent al dente bite with exceptional sauce cling.
\nMezzi Canneroni's production ensures unmatched quality in every bite.

\n \nExplore the rich history of Gragnano
\nJourney through Gragnano's pasta-making history.
\nGragnano sits in a narrow valley between the Lattari Mountains and the Gulf of Naples, and its streets were engineered in 1650, under Prince Cosimo Caracciolo, specifically to act as wind corridors. The warm, humid sea breeze from the Gulf and the cool Alpine draft from Monte Lattari were funneled down the main via from morning until dusk, drying freshly cut pasta strands hung across the street at just the right speed: slow enough to preserve the wheat's protein and flavor, fast enough to prevent spoilage. This was not a happy accident. It was deliberate infrastructure for a deliberate craft.
\nIn November 1980, the Irpinia earthquake struck Campania with a magnitude of 6.9. The region rebuilt slowly. Rather than modernize into the high-temperature flash-drying that had swept industrial pasta production, Gragnano's pastifici returned to what they had always done: bronze dies, 36-to-72-hour slow-drying, and durum semolina from the volcanic plains nearby. The discipline held. In 2013, the European Union awarded Gragnano the IGP designation — Indicazione Geografica Protetta — legally protecting the name for pasta made only within the municipality, under these specific methods. Di Martino has been part of Gragnano since 1912. Every box carries that continuity.

How production affects pasta quality
Italian ingredients meet artisan methods.
Durum wheat semolina gives this pasta its bold wheat flavor and firm texture. Unlike mass-produced pastas, bronze-die extrusion creates a rough surface for superior sauce adhesion.
Slow drying at low temperatures enhances flavor and structural integrity. This contrasts with high-temperature drying, which can destroy flavor and weaken the pasta.
Pastificio dei Campi uses these methods to ensure every piece of Mezzi Canneroni offers a consistent al dente bite with exceptional sauce cling.
Mezzi Canneroni's production ensures unmatched quality in every bite.

Explore the rich history of Gragnano
Journey through Gragnano's pasta-making history.
Gragnano sits in a narrow valley between the Lattari Mountains and the Gulf of Naples, and its streets were engineered in 1650, under Prince Cosimo Caracciolo, specifically to act as wind corridors. The warm, humid sea breeze from the Gulf and the cool Alpine draft from Monte Lattari were funneled down the main via from morning until dusk, drying freshly cut pasta strands hung across the street at just the right speed: slow enough to preserve the wheat's protein and flavor, fast enough to prevent spoilage. This was not a happy accident. It was deliberate infrastructure for a deliberate craft.
In November 1980, the Irpinia earthquake struck Campania with a magnitude of 6.9. The region rebuilt slowly. Rather than modernize into the high-temperature flash-drying that had swept industrial pasta production, Gragnano's pastifici returned to what they had always done: bronze dies, 36-to-72-hour slow-drying, and durum semolina from the volcanic plains nearby. The discipline held. In 2013, the European Union awarded Gragnano the IGP designation — Indicazione Geografica Protetta — legally protecting the name for pasta made only within the municipality, under these specific methods. Di Martino has been part of Gragnano since 1912. Every box carries that continuity.
Each bite of Mezzi Canneroni is a tribute to Gragnano's rich pasta heritage.
