Pâtes d'Alsace IGP: Tradition and quality in nest form

What makes Grand' Mère pasta special is the Protected Geographical Indication (IGP), which guarantees origin and the traditional recipe. In the manufactory in Marlenheim a particularly high standard is observed: exactly seven fresh eggs are used per kilogram of the finest durum wheat semolina. This high egg ratio gives Nests No. 4 their appetizing golden color, a perfect al dente texture and excellent firmness when cooked.

The nest shape impresses with a unique structure that holds sauces and aromas especially well. Whether served as an elegant side to game, in creamy gratins or simply tossed in butter — this Alsatian specialty adapts harmoniously to your culinary ideas. Fun fact: Marlenheim is the partner town of Rust in Ortenaukreis — with every nest you enjoy a piece of regional tradition and sustainable production from a family-owned company.

Preparation & sustainability

Preparation tip: Place Nests No. 4 into plenty of boiling, lightly salted water. Thanks to the high egg quality they retain their shape perfectly. Serve classically with an Alsatian cream sauce or simply tossed in good butter to enjoy the pure taste of Alsace.

Quality note on the best-before date (MHD): The best-before date is not a discard date but the manufacturer's guarantee for optimal quality with correct storage. Dried pasta like these egg noodles often remain perfectly edible well beyond the MHD when stored cool and dry. By consciously using long-lasting products we act sustainably together.
