Thanks to a couple of guys toiling away at pasta machines in Williamsburg, the pasta noodle is finally coming out from behind the red sauce. Sfoglini Pasta is selling hand-made, dried pasta in unique shapes and ingredients that are pleasing the taste buds of customers across the U.S.
“When we started we saw an opportunity for dried pasta made with New York state ingredients,” said Scott Ketchum, co-owner of Sfoglini with Steve Gonzalez. “We have been growing really quickly.” Sfoglini (pronounced Sfo-LEE-nee) will be one of nearly 100 companies offering samples at Brooklyn Eats, the annual trade show of Brooklyn-made food and drink that will take place at the New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge on Friday, June 23.
