Ask us Anything
For many reasons! Here are some of the main ones:
- Seed oils are processed with heat and chemical substances that damage the fats, so by the time they reach your plate, they already contain harmful byproducts.
- They are unstable, which means they break down even further during cooking.
- They are rich in omega-6 fats, which can make you feel sluggish and may promote a state where weight and health problems can easily develop.
- Unlike ancestral fats like butter, lard, or olive oil (which truly nourish and satiate you), seed oils have little nutritional value and push you to eat more without ever feeling genuinely full.
Yes, we use ingredients that are almost entirely organic.
The flour, milk, butter, and eggs are all certified organic, while the lard is not organic but it is unrefined and sourced from small farms in Italy.
About 30 days from the production date.
This is shorter than supermarket flatbreads, which can stay on shelves for months.
But honestly, we doubt yours will last until the end of the month to find out!
No, never. We don’t use any type of preservative.
Leonessa Piadina is made only with natural ingredients, which is why it must be kept in the fridge and consumed within 30 days.
Most regular flours come from wheat that’s treated with pesticides.
When flour is organic, like the one we use for Leonessa Piadina, it’s clean, gentle on the stomach, and full of real flavor.
Leonessa has a calorie content similar to other flatbreads, but the difference is in the quality of the ingredients.
When fats come from seed oils or preservatives are added, you tend to eat much more before feeling full, because these ingredients irritate the gut and confuse your hunger signals.
Real fats, like butter and lard, do the opposite: they nourish and satisfy you, so you naturally stop eating when your body has had enough.
There are several simple ways to save with Leonessa.
Larger packs offer a lower price per piadina, and a subscription gives you an even better price.
If you’re a true Leonessa fan, like many of our customers, the best option is to subscribe to a larger pack — the savings add up quickly.
Leonessa Piadina is handmade (yes, every single one!) with organic ingredients, and the preparation takes at least 4 hours from start to finish.
There’s a reason most brands no longer produce this way.
Rolling and cooking each piadina by hand, using real fats and organic flour, requires more time and care — and that’s what you see reflected in the price.
To make it more affordable, we also offer subscriptions that let you always have Leonessa in your fridge at a lower price per piadina.
