About Pasta Di Aldo
Pasta Di Aldo represents the pinnacle of Italian artisan pasta making, crafted in the tiny workshop of Monte San Giusto in the Le Marche region of Italy. Founded in 2001 by Maria Alzapiedi and Luigi Donnari—whose surnames form the "ALDO" acronym—this family business produces just 50kg of dried pasta per day, making it one of the most exclusive pasta brands in the world. The company carries on three generations of pasta-making expertise, using their patented "Al-Do Method" that distinguishes their products from industrial pasta. Unlike mass-produced alternatives that use metal dies, Pasta Di Aldo is hand-kneaded, rolled out like traditional fresh pasta sheets, cut by hand, and hung to dry slowly at low temperatures. This artisanal process preserves the freshness and taste of homemade pasta whilst achieving shelf-stable dried form. Pasta Di Aldo gained international recognition when celebrity chef Heston Blumenthal featured it in his BBC series "In Search of Perfection," describing it as "the finest pasta in Italy." The resulting pasta has a distinctive rough, porous texture and bright egg colour that grips sauces exceptionally well—a quality Italian home cooks prize above all else. Each variety uses carefully selected local wheats appropriate to that particular pasta shape. At Grocefully, we help you find Pasta Di Aldo products including their Pappardelle All'Uovo and Filini egg pasta across UK supermarkets.
