Fregola Tostata (Fregula in Sardinian) is a very ancient type of pasta. The toasted Sardinian pasta is made from hand-rolled semolina pearls and lightly toasted to achieve a deep, nutty flavour.
Traditionally it is usually used to cook fish or vegetable dishes as the light roasting gives it a golden appearance and adds more depth to the plate.
It is also perfect for broths, hearty vegetable sauces, or Mediterranean-style salads. Its unique texture absorbs flavour beautifully, making it a versatile staple in Italian cooking.
