Burnt Wheat Orecchiette Pasta
Orecchiette with burnt wheat is a particular variant of the traditional Apulian pasta. Grano arso, which means "burnt wheat", has humble origins and dates back to times when farmers collected the wheat grains left in the fields after burning the stubble. This grain, once ground, gives the pasta a dark color and a characteristic toasted, slightly smoky flavour. Orecchiette with burnt wheat goes perfectly with robust sauces, often based on vegetables such as turnip greens, or with simple but tasty condiments, such as olive oil, garlic and chilli pepper, thus enhancing their unique and ancient flavour.
