ANCIENT GRAINS
Ancient grains are a particular type of non-genetically modified grains, so called to differentiate them from "modern" grains, that is, all those types of grains that over time have undergone modifications by man to meet the needs of the food industry. The type used to make Reginette is called Perciasacchi (Khorasan), from the Sicilian "perciare", or to pierce, as the particular pointed shape of the grain required the perforation of the jute sacks used for transport.
This ancient grain is grown using the crop rotation technique, alternating wheat and legumes, in order to ensure better soil fertility . Furthermore, these grains exceed one meter and eighty in height, naturally fighting weeds without having to resort to the use of pesticides or fertilizers.
NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS
For the production of Paccheri , the wheat is stone-milled and the processing is carried out at low temperatures, so as not to lose the nutritional properties present in the germ, such as the content of mineral salts , polyphenols , antioxidants , carotenoids and vitamins which, consequently, will be present in greater concentrations than in a wheat that undergoes industrial processes. Furthermore, in ancient grains there is a greater concentration of fiber which helps to keep the glycemic index low, in addition to the presence of a type of gluten that is much less resistant and less aggressive towards the immune system.
Overall, therefore, we can say that these types of grains are more respectful of our organism, causing fewer inflammatory effects and improving digestibility .

Pasta as it once was
Unlike industrial pasta, Boniviri pasta is made only with ancient organic grains .
Ancient grains are those of the past: cultivated before intensive agriculture, never modified, almost forgotten.
Despite having a lower production yield, today we are rediscovering them for what they are: healthier, more sustainable and tastier.
Made with passion
Ancient grains, clean methods, artisanal care: here is our recipe.
- Protection of biodiversity and ancient Sicilian grains: we preserve the agricultural memory of the territory, renouncing modern high-yield hybrids to preserve flavor and nutritional benefits.
- Organic farming since 2001: without the use of pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizers, respecting the soil and aquifers. The rotation between cereals and nitrogen-fixing legumes naturally enriches the land.
- Cold storage : after harvesting, the wheat is stored at a controlled temperature. The cold protects from mold and insects, without the use of chemical agents, and keeps the nutritional and organoleptic properties of the grain intact.
- Ancient washing technique : before milling, the wheat is carefully washed with water. This ancient technique removes all impurities and softens the grain, preparing it for a more delicate and respectful processing.
- Stone milling: stone milling does not overheat the flour and preserves the wheat germ, the part richest in nutrients, intact.
The result is a lively, nutritious and tasty pasta.
Know who makes it
“As a child, together with a local lady, I harvested wheat in a field near my house to ensure bread for those who could not produce it themselves. This experience taught me the value of working the land and the importance of sharing what we have with others.”
Rosaria Miceli is the owner of the farm that produces our pasta. She does it with a lot of passion, and an organic, innovative, courageous culture.
The company extends among the Trapani hills, in Buseto Palizzolo, between Erice and Segesta.
