  1. This is the best pasta I have eve had. I just returned from Italy and had a perfect Italian moment. I bought the pappardelle. I made a sauce with olive oil garlic anchovies red pepper flakes then added fresh tomatoes and fresh basil. Of course grated a little fresh parm. Mille grazie . Robin Calderon

  2. My family and I went to the Ballard Farmer Market today and bought some of the pasta. I will say we never had a better pasta in our lives. A true ITALIAN made this with love. Thank you so much for a great meal in our Italian home.

  3. Wow…we tried the Lamb Ravioli (“al plin” style) and it was amazing! Made a creamy mint sauce (roux, chopped mint in vinegar, chicken stock, sage and cinnamon) to go with it, slow-roasted Campari tomatoes, and Swiss chard. Absolutely fabulous! Can’t wait to try the other wonderful pastas we purchased from you. Thank you, thank you!

  4. We got the Kale Ravioli from the Redmond Farmer’s Market last weekend. I followed the directions–5 to 6 minutes at just below a boil in a large quantity of salted water–and they were EXCELLENT. Also as recommended, I served them with just a small quantity of freshly made tomato sauce, a bit of Italian parsley and some grated cheese. They were light, full of flavor, not sticky or stodgy or leaden at all. Can you tell we’ve been burned in the past? In any event, we are looking forward to trying many other choices from this great vendor!

  5. Sam, we met bat the Redmond Farmers Market on Saturday.

    1. I do make biscotti, a traditional smaller twice baked cookie, than the ones we often see here in the states. Sam will be calling you soon to set up a time to drop off some pasta options for you and I will try to make a sample of biscotti for you to try. Thank you for your interest 🙂

  6. I have been wanting to try the wild boar and the duck ravioli. Everytime we go to the Ballard Farmers Market it is already sold out. We get there at opening time and by the time we make it to the booth they are already gone!! How am I ever going to get these?? We loved the smoked salmon ravioli.

  7. Samuele: that pasta was terrific, as usual. My daughter loved it.
    She lives in Lousiaianm, but we’ll be back next summer.

  9. Went to the Redmond Town Center farmers market last week and tried the lemon chicken ravioli SOOOO GOOD! Best I’ve ever had! Came back the next week and picked up Pappardelle and ravioli smoked salmon and the Verdue sauce!!!!!!!!! I’m so excited!!! How could I still purchase the pastas and sauce once the farmers market ends?
