Brocato’s Pasta

Jody Miller, the owner of Brocato’s Pasta Company, follows a legacy of good food. His great, great grandfather, Joseph Brocato, came to America from Sicily as an infant in the early 1900s. Although Joseph became involved in many glamorous entrepreneurial endeavors, he always wanted the Brocato family to come together for Sunday dinner.Preparation started early in the morning with every family member playing a role. From collecting eggs in the chicken coop to picking vine-ripened tomatoes, the freshest ingredients meant the most flavor and the time with each other was cherished.

Generations later Jody continues to carry on this important tradition of using fresh, local ingredients and enjoying good food together.  After earning his culinary degree and working as an executive chef, in 2007 Jody embarked on his own hand-crafted pasta business. He teamed up with his mother, Renee Bouchard Miller, and started selling his pasta products through her storefront, Bouchard’s Baked Goods, in Findlay Market.

He just recently opened a stall at the 2nd Street Market offering pasta made from using old-world techniques and fresh ingredients. The recipes trace back to Sicily, but you can taste the modern twist in the wide selection of flavors.   You’ll find it hard to choose since each batch of pasta, sauce, pesto, and butter is made by hand, ensuring the highest quality and best-tasting food that you can possibly put on your table.
