Our family has searched grocery stores and boutique markets high and low and it is incredibly difficult to find “solo grano Italiano” pasta here in America, but this is what we loved in Italy, and it’s what sets the Italian pasta apart! We never feel tired, sluggish, or bloated after having this pasta (and our very gluten-sensitive family members can eat it too!). We absolutely love the taste of this pasta, and appreciate that it is unenriched and the only ingredient is 100% Italian durum wheat semolina!
We also researched the bronze die-cut pasta. Pasta that is not labeled “bronze cut die” is extruded through a Teflon-lined machine (yuck!), so you get the chemical exposure, and the temperature of the dough increases because it’s a much faster way to cut pasta. However, with the low temperatures of the bronze cut die, the pasta has a higher starch content and sauces cling to the pasta much better!
Product Description
This pasta is unenriched (no added B vitamins, folic acid or niacin) and made from 100% Italian durum wheat semolina. Available in the large tubular Paccherishape, with a high protein content (8%), it offers exceptional cooking resistance and a delightful al dente bite. Whether paired with a robust meat ragu, a creamy Alfredo, a bright pesto, or a simple tomato sauce, this pasta will bring an amazing flavor to every dish. Perfect for everyday meals or special occasions.
Sizing Notes And How We Use It
This pasta comes in 1lb bags in a box of 12 bags. Because the pasta is dried, pantry storage is very easy! Typically, our family of 6 goes through between 1-1.5lbs of pasta for a family dinner.
