A Salento patent
When frisella meets couscous, tradition becomes innovation
In the heart of Salento, where bread is culture and time is a living ingredient, Friscous® is born: the first patented crunchy couscous that unites the ancient soul of Salento frisella with the contemporary versatility of couscous.
A 100% Italian innovation
Friscous® is a registered Salento patent, proof of an idea that is truly unique in the world. A product that speaks of roots, ingenuity, and territorial identity. On this page you will also find the official patent certificate.
Living sourdough since 1970
Every day we care for u vagnone, our living sourdough starter, fed at dawn and at sunset. It is what gives depth of aroma, digestibility, and a natural crunch unlike any other.
36 hours of slow drying
No baking, no industrial shortcuts: an artisanal process that respects the rhythms of nature. 36 hours at low temperature to preserve aromas, nutrients, and authenticity.
Two souls, infinite possibilities
Crunchy — just as it is, ready immediately, ideal as a gourmet topping.
Creamy — hydrated in 30–60 seconds, it becomes a soft, fragrant Salento couscous.
Friscous® is designed for chefs, restaurateurs, and food lovers who seek authenticity without compromise: a simple gesture, a deep flavor, an innovation born from tradition.
