I love gift-giving, but sometimes it can be a bit diffic
“richest man in town” types. Here are some fantastic g
season. I’ll wager that if Clarence and George weren’t t
gifts, they’d have appreciated what I’ve found here.
Pasta of the Month • $75+
Sfoglini Pasta Shop
Who doesn’t love pasta? The only thing that could make it better is if it were artisanally crafted for
your plate. The creative minds behind Sfoglini Pasta Shop saw a lack of fresh, organic pasta that
supported local grain economies and decided to do something about it. They source ingredients like
semolina from North Dakota, and even have a special line of NY State pastas, utilizing local farmers
and mills. They utilize seasonal and local ingredients along with traditional Italian methods, like bronze
extruded pasta. Doing this actually creates a porous texture that helps the sauce cling to the pasta.
Each month two pastas are sent out, 1 traditional such as spaccatelli, cavatelli, and zucca and one
seasonal pasta like porcini, cocoa, ramp. Your giftee will also receive recipe cards with a welcome let-
ter explaining about the ingredients. You have 3, 6, and 12 month options depending on your budget.
