This is organic paccheri pasta made from durum wheat semolina and water. The tubes are wide and ridged (rigate), which makes them well suited to filling. It is a Mezzi Paccheri Rigate di Gragnano, a dried Italian pasta.
Pastificio Gentile shapes the pasta in bronze molds and dries it using traditional methods. The brand has made artisanal Italian pasta since 1876 and uses wheat of Italian origin. The texture resembles homemade pasta and holds meaty ragùs such as bolognese, as well as rich cream sauces.
Use it in classic Italian recipes, such as a hearty pasta bake or a pasta salad. It also pairs with tomato sauce and ground beef or Italian sausage. Another option is to toss it with fresh herbs and grated parmigiano reggiano.
