It was 1933 and Nello Spinosi, soon to become the most important name in the long history of homemade pasta in Campofilone, took ‘maccheroncini’ his family made on his business trips to Rome to give to his customers. In those days there was no equipment to make pasta, just experience and great skill that gave the simple pasta dough its goodness.
