Aureli Mario is taking part to Nuremberg's BioFach trade fair (13-16 February 2013) with its own stand- one of the few (if not the only one) representing the whole Abruzzo region.

Alessandro Aureli, marketing and sales director for the company (see picture above) explains, "BioFach has evolved these past few years and it still attracts lots of people. We are here to display our latest innovations for the retail sector, as well as for the industry of processed food, both of which are looking for natural and alternative products."

Retail products

Thanks to its capability of understanding the potential of vegetables and enhancing their value, this year Aureli Mario presents its latest product- artisan pasta made with vegetable "flour".

The pasta is made by mixing 15-20% of vegetable powder with durum wheat semolina. Vegetable powder is obtained by squeezing, dehydrating and grinding carrots, black carrots, spinach and turnips.

Alessandro explains, "each of the vegetables gives a different colour to the pasta as well as different vitamins and fibres. Not many people eat vegetables, but everybody eats pasta. This concept was at the origin of this product. In addition, considering that 100kg of carrots are needed to make each kilo of vegetable "flour", the quantity of nutrients in it is really interesting!"

Vegetable flour can also be used for bread and other bakery products.

"At the fair, we are presenting our own bread made with black and orange carrot flour."

Among the other finished products for retail, the company also recommends vegetable jam, and in particular two new flavours - black carrot with lemon and pumpkin-carrot.

Natural ingredients for the food industry

Alessandro informs us that "a few months ago we have launched vegetable purées to make cream soups and potages with various flavours- pumpkin, courgette, carrot and pepper."

Natural ingredients

"In particular, Walter Aureli, our plant manager for processed foods, has outdone himself by producing butternut squash purée, which is not only fragrant, but also bright, sweet and appetizing: our advice is to try mixing it with carrot purée and a bit of cinnamon for excellent culinary evenings!"

The company has also widened the range of colours available in its natural food colourings line using vegetable extracts.

'I Colori della Salute' (Healthy Colours) by Aureli includes colours ranging from yellow, and orange to various shades of green: "We have obtained these thanks to the new celery, parsley and spinach concentrates," explains Alessandro.

"Our concentrates are affordable yet healthy natural colourings, and they also guarantee the aroma and nutritional support of the food for which they are being used."

Finally, Aureli presents confectionery companies with a sugar beet purée as a natural sweetener to substitute synthetic sugar.

"Could it be a way to revamp the sugar beet, which is no longer cultivated in the Fucino area?", concludes Alessandro.
