| History
Its presence in Abruzzi is witnessed by historical documents dating back to the 16th century. Solina wheat is a common wheat characteristic of the Abruzzi mountains that has been cultivated until present times despite its not very high yields for the particular taste and perfume it gives to bread, pasta, and pastry produced with it. Still today, in the inland of Abruzzi, when you talk about wheat, you talk about Solina. Several proverbs witness the deep link existing between this variety and the life of the local people, like "Solina is the mother of every kind of wheat".
