Traditional Sicilian Pasta Cut Made with Heirloom Wheat Timilia—also known as tumminia—is an ancient varietal of durum wheat native to Sicily. This hearty grain is known for its short growing cycle, drought resistancy and delicate earthy, nutty flavor. Rustichella d’Abruzzo’s heirloom wheat ziti pasta is made with organic timilia flour and Apennine mountain spring water. The pasta is extruded through bronze dies, creating a rough surface ideal for sauces to cling to and a pleasing al dente texture (you know, that toothsome bite we all crave from a really delicious bowl of pasta).
