Made from high-quality semolina flour, Etto pasta is handmade using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations.

Surprise your mom with the gift of authentic Italian cuisine this Mother’s Day with Etto pasta.
pronunciation: ca-za-REH-chay
Casarecce means “homemade” in Italian. It was a relatively easy pasta shape to make in the home. The slightly twisted S shaped pasta is great for fresh, chunky sauces.
One of ETTO’s favorite sauces is a Sugo di Cinghale which is a tomato based sauce with wild boar.
Recipe – Casarecce With Pesto Trapanese
Prep Time: 15 Minutes
Cook Time: 10 Minutes
Serves: 4-6 Servings
This dish is just as good served at room temperature as it is warm. It is great alone as a main course or alongside grilled chicken or sausages. Basil is a loved alternative as the main focus of this sauce. There is a lovely umami taste to the sauce.
Ingredients
-
16 toasted whole almonds
-
Kosher salt
-
4 cloves garlic
-
½ cup Italian parsley
-
½ cup basil leaves
-
1lb fresh cherry tomatoes or one 28oz can whole peeled tomatoes, liquid drained
-
1lb Etto Dried Casarecce Pasta
-
6oz good quality olive oil
-
¼ cup grated parmesan
-
¼ cup grated pecorino romano
-
Freshly ground pepper
-
Flaky sea salt, for serving
Preparation
Step 1
In a food processor, add almonds and a pinch of salt. Pulse until a coarse paste forms. Add the garlic and blend into the paste. Then add the parsley and basil and blend to combine, followed by the tomatoes.
Step 2
Gently incorporate olive oil by pulsing it into the sauce, followed by the cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 3
Meanwhile, bring 4 quarts of water with 1tbl kosher salt to boil in a large pot. Cook casarecce to al dente according to package directions. Drain pasta reserving about ½ cup starchy cooking water.
Step 4
Transfer sauce to a large bowl. Add pasta and toss to coat, adding pasta water if necessary to loosen up the sauce. Divide among bowls and garnish with more herbs, salt, and cheese.
Brian & Stephie Terrizi of Giornata Wines produce their pure Etto Pastificio American craft pasta in Paso Robles, in California’s Central Coast wine country. Featured at their own Etto Pasta Bar as well as at dozens of restaurants throughout California, Etto uses only organically farmed American grains extruded through traditional bronze dies from Italy. Etto pasta is high in protein, low in sugar, has terrific flavor and the sensuous shapes have made Etto the healthy carb of choice among pasta fanatics around the country. Through a program called “Pasta for the People,” Etto has donated over 25,000 portions of pasta to help fight food insecurity in school districts throughout California’s Central Coast.

2023’s Young Artists to Watch Jesse Liu on First Solo Art Exhibition in LA
Chinese-American artist Jesse Liu has quickly become one of the most in-demand visual artists on the west coast, most recently opening her first Los Angeles solo-exhibit to over half her collection pre-sold beforehand. A graduate of the esteemed School of Visual Arts New York, Jesse’s moving exhibit Spring Fever is currently on display at the Asian/female-owned Yiwei Gallery (1350 Abbot Kinney, Venice, CA 90291) with a closing ceremony on Saturday, April 2nd. The closing ceremony will hold an Artist Talk with Jesse and LA Weekly Arts Editor and Art Critic Shana Nys Dambrot followed by a Movement Performance. We would love to set up an interview with Jesse to discuss her current exhibit and her big plans for the future. We would also love to invite you to the gallery to meet with Jesse and to attend the closing ceremony.

magazine/jesse-liu-5-things-i- wish-someone-told-me-when-i- first-became-an-artist- cb159f99aee7 Liu’s mesmerizing paintings are illusionary – blending together her imagined world with small fragments of her personal memories and emotions. Her inspiration for each work comes from a fascination with the concept of memory, itself a product of subjective consciousness – memories are more about recording emotions at a specific moment rather than an object fact. When she paints, she connects her reflected moments to the present day. People who are lost in one reality appear in this painted one, longing or playing, hiding or seeking, uncomfortable or blissful.
All of her paintings are of women, showing their mysterious sides in different environments and postures, while also highlighting their relationships with eachother. She primarily works with oil on canvas because it holds and stores and layers something important to her with each brush stroke. Her exhibit Spring Fever focuses on these women who are sparks of her own memories and experiences she has encountered mixed with the inner emotions and world that she has created.
Growing up in Beijing, China, Liu came to South Carolina for high school, and then graduated from School of Visual arts, majoring in illustration. What interested her most was how to tell stories through visual representation which ultimately led her to finding her passion in painting allowing her free reign to express her emotions and inner world. As a person who is not good at expressing herself in words, painting became a bridge for her to communicate with the outside world.
