Gragnano became la patria della pasta celebrata da scrittori, storici e poeti.
Uno dei tanti artisti che celebrarono le doti e le qualità degustative della pasta di Gragnano fu il poeta Gennaro Quaranta il quale compose Maccheronata, una poesia in risposta al pessimismo del poeta recanatese Giacomo Leopardi.

History and traditions: Different phases.
• During the mediaeval period, the tradition of pasta, passed down from the ancient Greek, Arabic, and Etruscan cultures, was further developed by the introduction of new forms, such as hollow pasta, and pasta ripiena (filled pasta)

History and traditions: Different phases.
• The most influential innovation during this period however was the development of techniques for making ‘pasta secca a lunga conservazione’ (long life dried pasta), an invention which is generally attributed to the nomadic Arabs who needed to be able to carry their provisions over long distances during their travels through the desert. Due to the fact that the process of essiccazione (drying) allowed pasta to be conveniently transported by both land and sea, it was this development above all which enabled the widespread commercial distribution of pasta.

Shape small balls of the spinach filling and place them on the pasta strips about 5cm apart. Then cover with another strip of pasta. Press the pasta sheets together around the filling, sealing firmly.
