In Sicily, where the ADLER Resort SICILIA welcomes its guests, around 50 different varieties of ancient cereals grew until the 20th century. In other words, local varieties are native to the area. With the industrialization of agriculture, most of these varieties disappeared. They were replaced, as everywhere else in the world, by hybrid varieties of cereals that produce higher yields and are better suited to the industrial demands of modern agriculture.
Chef Giuseppe Schimmenti, however, is committed to preserving the original biological richness of Sicily and uses only the original cereals in his kitchen. For pasta, he uses Senatore Cappelli durum wheat. This wheat is grown right around the Torre Salsa nature reserve, where the ADLER Spa Resort SICILIA is located.
Did you know? Maltagliati means “badly cut” and refers to the rough shapes and forms of the pasta!
To make the perfect pasta dough for this Maltagliati recipe, the chef pays attention not only to the type of flour but also to the milling process. He uses about ⅔ stone-ground durum wheat flour, ground in a traditional Sicilian stone mill. The advantage of this slow process is that it retains more nutrients and fiber. However, the result is somewhat coarser. For a perfect mix, it is therefore necessary to add ⅓ durum wheat flour from the cylinder mill, which is particularly fine.
To reproduce the Malagliati recipe true to its origin, we recommend buying Senatore Cappelli durum wheat flour (e.g. from Krusteundkrume or Giolea). Alternatively, you can use ordinary wheat flour from your household and mix in a handful of semolina.
