Product History
In the old days, in the villages of Greece, pasta was usually made during the summer, when it was dried out in a natural way and kept in the house cellar in order to be served in the winter. It was considered one of the easiest food to make and a simple solution to feed a large and hungry family. Greek traditional pasta vary depending on the region, shape, size and way of cooking. Plain, with cheese, with some sauce on top, with meat, in soups or even in pies, pasta is a food that everyone enjoys no matter the recipe!

Ano Poroia

Ano Poroia is located in the northern part of the prefecture of Serres, on the western slopes of mount Belles. The name Poroia comes from the combination of the words "poros" (which means passageway) and "roia"(which means flow) and indicates the location of the village on the running waters of the passage of Belles. The settlement was originally inhabited by the persecuted Greeks of Moschopolis, northern Epirus, Pindos and Grammos, and much later Asia Minor and Pontos. The houses are built amphitheatrically on the slopes of Lake Kerkini. Ano Poroia is characterized by a landscape of unique beauty, with shady plane trees, gurgling streams, forested slopes and cobbled roads - all characteristic of Epirus and Macedonian architecture.
