Product Description
WELCOME TO AGROZIMI!
AGROZIMI GREEK PASTA – MADE WITH THREE GENERATIONS OF LOVE
Agrozimi Greek pasta is not mass-produced. Made in the Greek village of Arávissos, using its famous spring water, brothers Yiorgos and Kosta Martavaltzoglou still buy grain from producers with whom their family has nurtured decades-long relationships. Their state-of-the-art production facility has high ceilings and plenty of open space to allow for natural drying, avoiding high-speed drying ovens. They use freshly pasteurized eggs & milk, not powdered, and employ traditional bronze dies to form select pastas. The result is a texture that holds sauces brilliantly and a flavor that is just as tasty on its own.
DEDICATED TO QUALITY & SATISFACTION
Our traditional pasta is always bronze-drawn and slowly air dried and we strictly forbid additives, preservatives, artificial flavors, and colorants in our products.
A DELICIOUS GREEK ONE-DISH SKILLET DINNER
Preparation
Warm the olive oil in a 10 inch skillet on medium heat.
Add the onion and sauté 1-2 minutes until translucent.
Add the garlic and stir for another minute.
If you are using fresh spinach, add the spinach and stir until it’s wilted. If you are using frozen spinach, add it to the pan and raise the temperature to high.
Add the stock and bring to a boil.
Add the orzo, give it a good stir and lower the temperature to medium-low. Cover and let it simmer for 12-15 minutes until the liquid is absorbed but the dish is not dried out.
Stir in the herbs and feta cheese and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Add salt & pepper to taste. Enjoy!

OUR FAMILY HISTORY
In 1969, our grandfather, Yiorgos Martavaltzoglou, a refugee from Asia Minor, started a bakery in the village of Aravissós, in the Greek province of Macedonia. His children, wanting to maintain the quality of the flour they used, started a mill in 1974 and gradually expanded it to produce traditional pasta, like hilopítes and trahaná. By 2010, we the third generation of the Martavaltzoglou family moved the business to a modern new production facility, continuing to produce the traditional flavors while adding new ones, like spelt, farro and squid ink.
