Looking For Authentic Homemade Pasta? Pasta e' Pasta Provides Old World Tastes

The Pasta e' Pasta company may be less than 20 years old, but its old world products date back much farther than that.

The Chesterfield Township business stemmed out of Carlo De Angelis' pasta passion for offering authentic pastas based on a recipe his mother passed down to him in 1950s.

De Angelis made the pasta as a hobby before his daughter, Carla, convinced him in 1992 that he could sell the finished project in a business setting.

Unlike many processed pastas, the products offered weekly at the Plymouth Farmer's market don't include any additives, using a recipe comprised only of flour, eggs, water and olive oil.

Pasta e' Pasta offers several varieties of pastas including ravioli, gnocci, lasagna, rotini and other freshly-made noodles as well as jarred and frozen sauces that also come from De Angelis family recipes.

The pasta comes also comes in whole wheat and spinach-based noodles as well as blended bags that offers a bit of each.

The pasta is sold in three different sized-bags and is made at the home of De Angelis, who came to America in the 1950s from Italy. For more information on the company and what it offers, visit www.pasta-e-pasta.com.

The Plymouth Farmer's Market operates between May and October. It is open on Saturdays from 7:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. at The Gathering in downtown Plymouth.
