When Rolando Ruiz
endi moved to San Francisco, it wa s difficult to find high quality Italian food products in the United
States. He knew thetas of genuine Italian foods and wanted Americans to have the same wonderful flavors of Italy. In 1988,
he founded Manicaretti (the Italian word for little delicacies or treats) to bring products from Italy's finest regional artisan
producers to this country. The regional products were found through family, friends and word of mouth. Whether cooking
with a family on their farm or helping friends with the work in their small factory, he feels he is rediscovering these little gems
and helping to keep centuries-old traditions alive.

MORETTI COARSE WHITE POLENTA BRAMATA BIANCA
Made from the vitreous white corn, the corn is dried and ground in the same manner as
Bramata polenta to a coarse meal. Served both soft and hard, the white polenta is
present in almost every restaurant around the lagoon of Venice and around the coast line
to Trieste.

COARSE YELLOW POLENTA BRAMATA
Carefully selected corn cobs from the Bergamo plains are carefully husked and dried in
temperature controlled ovens to ensure an even texture to the resulting polenta. The
corn ears are crushed and de-grained, and the kernels are stone ground with the hull and
germ, lending more flavor and nutrition to the polenta.
QUICK-COOKING POLENTA LAMPO
The Lampo polenta is made with Bramata polenta. After milling, the polenta is basically
pre-cooked : the flour is steamed at 80 C for a few minutes, then cooled and milled once
again in order to obtain a finer meal. Thanks to the steaming process, the polenta retains
its aroma and taste as well as its nutritional value.
