Product Description

Handcrafted Pasta. USDA Organic. Our goal at Garden Time is to make the best pasta, period! You can only do that by starting with great wheat. We source our Organic semolina from the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains in Montana's Teton County, known the world over as, The Golden Triangle. The Golden Triangle region is located hundreds of miles from any major city so our wheat is not exposed to urban chemicals and pollutants, only natural spring water and the crisp, clean air of Montana. Garden Time is more durable than any other pasta due it its high gluten strength. As a result, it holds its shape, is less sticky and cooks to al dente texture every time. At Garden Time, we combine the finest American Organic semolina, with 3 generations of old world Italian craftsmanship to make the best Organic pasta in the world. We think you'll like it a lot. We donate 10% of our profits to groups that support environmental preservation, sustainable agricultural practices, hunger prevention and community based health initiatives. Product of USA.

5.0 out of 5 stars Organic manicotti!!, December 26, 2008

If you buy organic, then you will know how difficult it is to find out of the ordinary pastas, at least in my area. With an italian background, finding organic manicotti was such a treat! These pasta noodles are great tasting and long lasting. With a case of 12 it took some time to get through because I usually only make it for holidays or a special occasion. The last box was as great as the first. I found that the pasta shells were pretty much whole maybe one or two in a couple of boxes were broken, but not unsalvageable(and that's out of a surprising 14 shells per box). I cook them for 4 minutes then remove them from the boiling water and place them in cool water. I use a sealable storage bag to stuff them by trimming about 3/4" to 1" off of one corner and gently squeezing the filling into the manicotti shell. Using plenty of sauce in the baking dish makes up for the short boiling time. They stay together and do not split while filling with this method. I highly recommend them to anyone who wants to make a special dish more healthy! Enjoy!

I was looking forward to the opportunity of purchasing Organic Manicotti Shells but unfortunately found they would split down the middle when filling. My experience wasn't successful--Not sure if it is the manicotti or the cook -- I am going to try again and shorten the cook time to see if there is an improvement.
