This June, the timeless art of handmade Orecchiette pasta arrives in New York as Nonna Nunzia—celebrated around the world as the “Queen of Bari Pasta”—joins the Summer Fancy Food Show with her U.S. partner, Global Gourmet Goods. Born and raised in Bari, Italy, Nonna Nunzia has dedicated her life to preserving the centuries-old tradition of crafting authentic orecchiette by hand.
Made with simple ingredients, patience, and love, her pasta reflects the heart of Puglia: family, community, and uncompromising quality. Her work has been featured on many food blogs and shows, including Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy and Jamie Oliver: Jamie Cooks Italy, introducing global audiences to the beauty of true Italian home cooking.
