Giadzy Organic Orecchiette is a hand-rolled-style durum wheat pasta shaped into the small "little ears" of Puglia, made by artisans in Abruzzo with organic semolina and Majella spring water. The rough, cupped surface holds chunky sauces and small ingredients like sausage, greens and beans well. It suits cooks who want a rustic, artisanal dry pasta for sturdy sauces rather than a smooth supermarket shape. Against mainstream boxed orecchiette it offers more texture and a stronger wheat aroma, though it is a single-origin specialty rather than an everyday budget staple.

Orecchiette, the "little ears" of Puglia, are small rounds of pasta traditionally rolled by hand. This version is made by pasta artisans in Abruzzo, Italy, and keeps the hand-rolled look and rustic texture of the traditional shape. It pairs with sausage, greens and other smaller ingredients.
The dough combines organically grown semolina wheat flour from the base of the Majella mountains with pure Majella spring water. The pasta is cut on 100-year-old bronze dies, which give it a rough texture that holds sauce. After shaping, it is slowly air-dried for up to 36 hours to protect its flavor and dense texture.
