Bittarelli: Italian Excellence Beyond Meat – A Legacy of Beans, Grains, and Artisan Craft
Rooted in Emilia-Romagna’s Fertile Heartland
Bittarelli is proudly based in Emilia-Romagna, a region celebrated for its rich agricultural tradition and diverse crops. Beyond their renowned cured meats, Bittarelli is equally dedicated to producing premium beans, legumes, grains, and other plant-based products that echo Italy’s culinary heritage. Their connection to the land guarantees authenticity, quality, and a true taste of Italy.
Exceptional Ingredients from Trusted Sources
The company selects only the finest beans, pulses, and grains from local and regional growers who share their passion for sustainable agriculture. Each ingredient is chosen for flavour, nutrition, and texture—whether it’s classic borlotti beans, delicate chickpeas, or hearty ancient grains.
A Philosophy of Tradition, Purity and Care
Bittarelli’s ethos centres on preserving traditional cultivation and processing methods while embracing sustainable innovation. They respect natural growing rhythms, ensuring ingredients reach full maturity. Free from unnecessary additives and preservatives, their products reflect a clean, honest approach to food.
Artisan Production – Preserving Authentic Flavours
Their artisan production techniques set Bittarelli apart. Beans and grains undergo meticulous cleaning, sorting, and slow drying to retain their natural qualities. This gentle handling enhances flavour, texture, and shelf life, delivering products that inspire authentic Italian cooking.
A Broader Range of Plant-Based Delights
In addition to legumes and grains, Bittarelli offers pulses and preserved vegetables made using traditional methods. From dried beans to ready-to-cook products, each item reflects the same commitment to quality and tradition.
Sustainability and Responsibility at the Core
Bittarelli champions sustainable agriculture, working closely with growers to minimise environmental impact and promote biodiversity. Their ethical approach reflects deep respect for the land and community, making every product a reflection of true Italian craftsmanship.
By focusing on exceptional plant-based ingredients alongside their famous charcuterie, Bittarelli delivers a comprehensive expression of Italy’s gastronomic wealth—rooted in tradition, nurtured by nature, and perfected through artisan care.
