DeLallo Penne Rigate Pasta
DeLallo Penne Rigate Pasta
Penne Rigate is named for its angular “pen” shape. This well-known cut has angular ends that draw sauce into its hollow body. This, along with its ridges, make Penne Rigate pasta a perfect cut for fresh tomato sauces with mozzarella and basil. It pairs great with the beloved tomato-cream sauce, Penne alla Vodka.
DeLallo Pasta comes from the town where pasta was born, a region near Naples, at the beginning of the Amalfi Coast. The art of making our pasta begins with the very best quality wheat. We carefully choose wheat with the highest gluten index, gluten content and protein content. All of these characteristics affect how the pasta cooks, as well as its taste and texture. The durum wheat is milled into coarse ground semolina flour and then carefully kneaded with cold, fresh, mineral-rich mountain spring water. We dry our pasta slowly at low temperatures to reproduce the traditional way of making pasta. This method respects the ingredients, preserving the pasta’s color, texture and aroma.
