Pasta with wheat germ is the spearhead of Pastificio Morelli.

The Antico Pastificio Morelli 1860 is the only producer in the world of this variety of pasta that takes full advantage of the virtues and benefits of wheat germ: the heart of the grain that has always been discarded in the food industry. In fact, during grinding, the highly perishable wheat germ (it decays in 48 hours) is removed from the grain to facilitate the conservation of the flour.

Pastificio Morelli has instead devised a process by which it is able to reinsert it into the dough. The wheat germ gives a more intense aroma and flavour to the pasta, it sublimates all its qualities.

During cooking, a marked smell of wheat is released and the water is slightly tinged with green. It's absolutely normal.

You can season it in any way.

Antico Pastificio Morelli 1860 has been producing the finest Italian pasta by hand and of the highest quality for over 160 years. The company is still one of the most respected pasta factories in Italy. No preservatives or colours are used in the production of their pasta classics and creative flavoured pasta.
