Toasted Fregola 

Centaur Fregola is a traditional Sardinian pasta made from small, toasted pasta pearls with a wonderfully nutty flavour and a satisfyingly chewy bite. Often compared to couscous in shape but richer in texture, fregola is perfect for soaking up sauces, broths and seafood juices, making it a brilliant choice for comforting Mediterranean cooking at home. Use it in warming soups, light summer salads, or classic Italian seafood dishes when you want something a little different from rice or orzo. If you are looking for an authentic Italian fregola pasta for quick midweek meals or relaxed weekend cooking, this 1kg pack is a versatile pantry staple.

Where does fregola pasta come from?

Fregola originates from Sardinia, where it is traditionally hand rolled and toasted, giving it its distinctive flavour and colour.

Why is fregola toasted before cooking?

The toasting process adds a deeper, slightly nutty taste and helps the pasta keep a pleasantly firm texture in soups and stews.

Is fregola commonly used in seafood dishes?

Yes, it is especially popular in Sardinian coastal cooking because the pasta pearls absorb the flavours of shellfish, fish stock and tomato based sauces beautifully.
