For example, Tuscany extra virgin olive oil has a more peppery and spicy bite with some bitter notes. Meanwhile, the Hyblean Mountains (Monti Iblei) in Southeastern Sicily are bursting with flavor and often have a well-rounded fruity essence. In Trentino-Alto Adige, the only area suitable for growing olive trees is around Lake Garda, and the oil produced has a lighter flavor and color than in other areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are just a few examples of how olive oils can vary - and each impacts your salads, pastas, stuffed peppers, cakes, and other creations differently.

This Fregula Sarda Grossa from La Casa le Grano brings one of the most iconic dishes of Sardinia into your home. This traditional durum wheat pasta is a staple Sardinian dish. Because it's lightly toasted after the pasta is formed, it adds a wonderful depth of flavor to your meal. As a variation on couscous, it's also incredibly versatile when it comes to home cooking.
There are a number of ways to experiment with this Sardinia pasta. Fregula Sarda is often paired with seafood, such as clams, which brings to mind the fresh seafood sourced right from the Mediterranean Sea by locals on the island of Sardinia. For something with a hearty and earthy flavor, try Fregula Sarda with sausage. This pasta also tastes lovely with tomatoes, asparagus, and lemon, or you can use it to create fresh summer salads.
You can see Rachael Ray's video recipe with Fregula Sarde through this link.
