Our Corn-Rice Pasta is back!

It took some time to perfect our recipe (and to gather all the ingredients), but we are proud to announce that the yellow corn and rice accordions are finally back! You can find them in our store and in our stall at farmers markets (Sunday at Temescal in Oakland and at California Avenue in Palo Alto).

It is the perfect product for all those who want to eat less gluten.

Please note: this pasta is not for celiacs as it is produced in the same facility where we manufacture all durum-wheat and spelt based noodles.

In the coming weeks we will start posting some of our opinions and some facts about this gluten-free craze.

For the moment, though, we are happy to be able to offer this pasta.

Also - very important- our mac&cheese will be back this Sunday morning for our customers in Jack London Square.

Cash Mob and Mattarello pop-up on Dec. 16th (10am-3pm)

On Sunday 16th we’ll host a cash mob in our store in Jack London Square from 10 am to 3 pm.
It’s simple as this: spend $20+ and you get a raffle ticket.
At the end of the day we’ll award 20 more baskets loaded with products from our neighboring businesses.

Plenty of Baia Pasta Holiday Baskets as well to choose from.

Make sure to mention that you’re there for the Cash Mob. 

We’ll also host John and Anna from Mattarello for a fresh pasta pop-up for the day. 

Mattarello, an artisanal pastificio in San Francisco, combines traditional Italian pasta-making techniques with locally sourced ingredients to produce high-quality pastas and sauces. Like Baia Pasta, they are committed to using the best ingredients available in the Bay Area and to the superior quality of their products. They uses local flour and pasture-raised eggs to produce pasta in the traditional Bolognese style (“la sfoglia”). They use D.O.P. San Marzano tomatoes and local pasture-raised meats for our sauces. Mattarello pastas and sauces are lovingly made by hand.

They’ll have  limited quantities of their tagliatelle, fettuccine and pappardelle so you can also pre-order here.
John and Anna will bring also their awesome sauces and warm focaccia ($3/slice).

If you pre-order, make sure you’ll be able to pick-up and pay on Dec 16th as they’ll be there only that day.

We now sell on Good Eggs !

We have started to sell our pasta via Good Eggs. They’ve got the right idea, to funnel into a single network your tasty grocery needs and to boost all the small food artisans that make the Bay Area a “YAY” area…
You can buy one-time orders of all our pastas (you select durum wheat semolina or specialty grains) and standing orders (monthly subscriptions) up to 3 pounds of pasta. 
For now we are only using the Good Eggs HQ (Hampshire and Mariposa) as a pickup spot and we have also been included in a “SF delivery” plan (currently being tested, with direct delivery to your door).
As soon as we understand the demand and work around the deliveries, we’ll extend the pickup spots to other areas of SF and the Bay Area.
For now, deliveries are on Wednesdays.

Look at us here, I so needed a haircut ^_^
