Project Description

Nothing says northern California summer more than this. We’ve paired our Identity Preserved Fettuccine made with wheat grown by the superstars at Full Belly Farm with a fresh conserva of dry-farmed Early Girl tomatoes. Cherry tomatoes or sweet 100s would work well too.

Whole Wheat Fettuccine with Tomato Conserva
