<\/p>\nWe chose this historic Piedmontese bakery for its loyalty to a method that has never given in to industrial shortcuts: since 1945,<\/p>\n
in Rocchetta Tanaro, every breadstick begins with a naturally leavened dough and is hand-stretched, one by one,<\/p>\n
with the same gesture passed down through three generations of the Fongo family.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The ingredient list stays short \u2014<\/p>\n
flour, water, unfiltered Italian extra virgin olive oil, salt, yeast \u2014<\/p>\n
and the flour blends are selected together with trusted millers to ensure optimal leavening without the dough losing elasticity.<\/p>\n

Mario Fongo is a distinctive choice for hotellerie,<\/p>\n
restaurants and gourmet delicatessens looking for an authentic Piedmontese baked product,<\/p>\n
recognised by Gambero Rosso as Italy’s best artisan breadstick.<\/p>\n
