The production of vegetable by-products has become a global concern, due to their environmental and economic impact. Therefore, in this work a new, patented technology was applied in order to transform vegetable by-products (artichoke bracts) and the whole tomato berry (without producing further waste), as food ingredients. In particular, handmade 100% semolina fresh pasta (with no vegetable added) and pasta with the addition of moist and freeze-dried vegetable waste was produced. The aim of this research was to evaluate whether the enriched pasta, both raw and cooked, showed better results for polyphenol content, protein content, antioxidant activity and sensory qualities, when compared with the control one. Results showed that the addition of these new ingredients in both raw and cooked pasta increased the content of bioactive molecules. The sensory analysis proved that the fortified pasta was more appreciated than the control one, especially the cooked pasta.
