Pastificio Il Mattarello

The pasta factory "Il Mattarello" has been in activity since 20 years. It is situated in Bronte, a small city on Etna's hillside, in the province of Catania and it is famous for the so called "Green Gold", the pistachio. In particular, the pistachio characterizes the Sicilian food and cuisine by making flavours and tastes unique in the world. The Pasta factory "Il Mattarello" means quality and food freshness. Our pistachio ravioli suits perfectly customers' palate thanks to their flavour, taste and texture. Ravioli are a type of filled pasta: pistachio is both in the dough and in the filling mixed with beef meat. We do not use any type of artificial preservative but only natural flavours. The pasta factory "Il Mattarello" is not only know for the fresh pasta's production, but also for typical Italian egg-pasta, such as maccheroni, tortellini (pasta filled with meet), tagliatelle paglia e fieno (white and green noodles), ravioli filled by spinach and ricotta or beef. We always use advanced tools and we are capable of working in a fast and precise way by following all the European rules. It also has to be mentioned our artisanal way to produce strozzapreti, a kind of pasta made by a special tool which turn over the dough giving it a twisted shape. The slightly different dimension between one and another single piece is the mark that guarantees the best artisanal quality.

The owner was absolutely wonderful. We arrived in the town just as most businesses were closing (2pm) but Il Pistachio was still open. He let us sample many products and everything was so good that we purchased nearly everything we tried. He then went out of his way to call a friend and ask them to keep their restaurant open so we could have lunch, which they did! I’m reviewing them next( Osteria Fastuq). He also recommended a nearby town where we could find many wine shops with wine produced from the vineyards of Mt Etna. I can’t say enough great things about our visit to this lovely little shop and the kind owner.

Sicily Hiking Tour

Sicily Hiking Tour was born from the will and desire to offer travellers the possibility of enjoying and directly experiencing the natural wonders of Sicily. Sicily contains such a variety of natural, archaeological and panoramic wonders that it could be considered a “miniature continent” in itself. Thriving forests, carsic canyons, volcanoes, and archaeological sites make this island a true jewel of the Mediterranean. We love Etna, its geological history and evolution, its legends, its landscapes made up of lava flows, caves and extinct craters. We offer tours and trekking on Etna, tastings of typical local products. Tours and visits to the Nebrodi, Peloritani, Iblei mountains. Archeotrekking and visits to archaeological sites. The interpretation of the territory, will be provided by the guides. They will give their guests a unique experience surrounded by the wonders of Sicily, with a particular knowledge of Mount Etna. We can't wait to share our passion with you!
