Pasta R&d Intern
Pubblicato il 15-08-2026 - Miscusi in Milano
We feed millions of people each year and we want them to be happy. To do so, we keep cooking with love as our Grammas taught us, plus we embrace food technology, process engineering, kitchen automation we are Italians of a new generation!
At Miscusi we believe Pasta makes people happy. Good Carbs are full of Serotonin, the so-called Happiness Hormone. We grew up with it here, daily: quick dose of energy after school, slow Sunday lunch with Gramma, and yet again between busy schedules as grownups. It is part of our DNA: culturally, ethically, biologically.
We source, directly from Italian farmers, organic and biodiverse raw materials. We use 8 different cereals, from ancient durum Perciasacchi, stoned ground, to 4 different types of legumes to Sorghum which we grow ourselves with regenerative farming practices since 2019.
Our menu is CO2e complaint TODAY with 2050 UN science-based target!
We are serving about 2 million plates of pasta this year; we need that number to grow by a factor of 10 or 100 to move the needle on our mission. As we grow, we will increase R&D; money invested as we see a tremendous opportunity to have more people join the food revolution needed for humanity to not only survive from extinction, but to strive, feel good and be happy along the way.
