In recent years, the food industry has witnessed an explosion of startups, including those in the food sector, bringing innovative and sustainable products to the market. Among these is Tortellini Bo, which stands out for its production of fresh pasta for restaurants and Ho.Re.Ca. businesses, in particular tortellini and tagliatelle, faithfully adhering to the original recipes registered with the Bologna Chamber of Commerce.
Behind the Tortellini Bo project is the idea of Chef Giuseppe Tarantino, patron of the Ristorante Corbezzoli in Bologna. A fervent supporter of enhancing authentic flavors, within Corbezzoli, Chef Giuseppe Tarantino creates traditional recipes, reinterpreted with a contemporary touch, ideal for creating exceptional culinary experiences.
Behind Tortellini Bo is the need to offer a high-quality artisanal product, faithful to tradition but with the standards of large-scale production, with the aim of satisfying a wide audience without having to give up the authentic Bolognese experience.
The startup
Tortellini are a cultural symbol of Bologna, where fresh pasta is a heritage to be preserved and enhanced. Tortellini Bo champions this tradition, combining the authenticity of traditional methods with a modern and sustainable approach. The startup was born out of a love for good food and a desire to maintain a strong connection with the territory. The founders, experts in pasta making with years of experience and passion for the food sector, have set themselves the mission of offering customers a genuine product, made with fresh, top-quality ingredients, without compromising the authentic flavor of the original recipes. Each dough is produced meticulously and following traditional methods, but without foregoing innovation. The fresh pasta is made with durum wheat flour, fresh eggs, and a filling that varies according to the recipe, always maintaining the right balance between flavor and texture. Finally, each tortellino is made by a machine that, simulating the shape of “human” fingers, reproduces the artisanal closure, always different and “perfectly imperfect”. This approach not only guarantees a high-quality product but also tells a story of passion and respect for Bolognese culinary traditions. But there are not only traditional meat tortellini. Tortellini Bo also produces vegetarian tortellini, chicken tortellini (for those who don’t eat pork), tuna tortellini, and many types of fresh pasta, such as tagliatelle, gramigna, and many other formats. This variety allows satisfying every palate and adapting to different dietary needs. Furthermore, it is possible to purchase fresh or frozen pasta, allowing Ho.Re.Ca. customers to better organize their work.
Focus on Sustainability
One of the distinctive features of Tortellini Bo is its commitment to sustainability. The startup works constantly to reduce its environmental impact, using local ingredients and eco-friendly production methods. The choice of fresh, seasonal ingredients not only helps support the local economy but also ensures that every dish is tasty and genuine. Furthermore, Tortellini Bo has adopted sustainable packaging practices. By using recycled and compostable materials, it is committed to minimizing the use of plastic and promoting a more respectful approach to the environment. This vision is particularly appreciated by restaurateurs who are increasingly attentive to the origin and production process of the foods they choose to serve at the table.
