Farmers Market Field Trip: Peperonata Pasta

Join the Sarasota Farmers Market Operations Manager Phil Pagano as he pays a visit to Adrian and Marina Fochi, the faces and flour-covered hands of Peperonata Pasta. Peperonata provides a rare addition to the delicious and healthful foods at the Farmers Market: fresh noodles! Between the two of them, the Fochis produce just about every shape of pasta imaginable, as well as savory sauces, using traditional techniques. Peperonata specializes in pastas flavored with vegetables and herbs, as well as nutrient-packed "superfood" pastas made with ingredients such as flaxseed and quinoa. And their ravioli is simply to die for! You can visit them this summer each Saturday morning, downtown on Lemon Avenue. Check out the Peperonata website for tips on cooking fresh pasta, and get ready to taste the difference.
