Giadzy Gluten-Free Taccole Corte is a short, ruffled pasta made in Lombardy from non-GMO Italian corn and rice flours and water, with no additives. The ruffled edges hold sauce well and give a firm al dente bite. It suits gluten-free cooks who want an artisan pasta for baked dishes like sheet-pan lasagna. Compared with mass-market gluten-free pasta, it uses simple ingredients and traditional slow drying, but it is a niche shape with limited availability.

Taccole corte is a short, rectangular pasta with ruffled edges, similar to those on American lasagna sheets. The frills add surface area, so sauce clings to the pasta. It is the pasta used in Giada's sheet pan lasagna recipe, and this version is gluten-free.
It is made from Italian-grown, non-GMO corn and rice flours blended with water. It contains no emulsifiers, preservatives or other additives. The flours come from heirloom varieties of corn and rice, sourced directly from family farmers in Lombardy's Po River Valley.
The pasta is kneaded, shaped and slowly air-dried using traditional artisan methods, the same ones used for the brand's wheat-based pasta. It cooks to an al dente texture. The starchy cooking water can be used to bring the pasta and sauce together. It is produced in a completely gluten-free facility and is celiac-safe.
