From the creative cuisine of Maria Amalia Anedda the tradition meets the present. The noise of tagliatelle hatches in the slight and creamy hug of the squacquerone who, in its softness, welcomes the crunchy artichokes, while licorice gives the right touch of panache. "At the beginning of my career I chose France, the Temple of taste. Then I returned to Parma, to tell, through my dishes, a tradition enriched by the flavors of the world." Chef Maria Amalia Anedda The magic of the egg gives life to a gold -colored pasta which in a few minutes of cooking takes on an elastic and porous structure, capable of collecting the sauce at best. Typical of tradition, but of contemporary nature our tagliatelle are perfect for a daily meal that does not give up the taste of the party.

The brand

Barilla G. and R. Fratelli S.p.A, simply known Barilla, is an Italian multinational company in the food sector, operating in the dry pasta market, ready -made sauces, baking products, flour and bread.

Barilla was founded in 1877 in Parma in Strada Vittorio Emanuele 252 (today Strada della Repubblica) by Pietro Barilla Sr., Descending from a family of panettieri; The activity was born as a shop for the production of bread and pasta.

The company enlarged in 1908. In 1910 the Barilla rented a building (which later became the owned of them) not far from the shop, just outside Barrier Vittorio Emanuele, and inaugurated a new pasta factory, equipped with a ""continuous production oven "". In the same year, the Parmesan sculptor Emilio Trombara made the first brand of the company, ""The Garzone with the egg"". The egg - with reference to egg pasta - became the graphic brand of the company; For many years the logo was precisely a stylized egg, with the name of the company inside the red yolk surrounded by the white albume.

After the death of Pietro Barilla sr. The direction of the company passed entirely in the hands of the sons Riccardo and Gualtiero. It was since then that Barilla increased the production and distribution of products, thanks to a technological innovation that would allow it to transform quickly, during the 1920s and 1930s, into the most important company in the sector in Emilia-Romagna.
