Faella Penne Piccole Rigate

Faella Penne Piccole Rigate is short tube-shaped dry pasta made by the Italian brand Faella. The product belongs to the Faella Grandi Classici range. On the official site the product is labelled Pasta di Gragnano IGP, the EU protected geographical indication for dry pasta made in Gragnano.

Ingredients: durum wheat semolina and water. Pack sizes: 500 g. Protein: 13 g per 100 g.

Sauce gets inside the tubes, so the shape works with tomato, vegetable and meat sauces as well as in baked pasta. Classic dishes for this shape: amatriciana, pasta alla Norma and puttanesca. Allergens: gluten (wheat). As with any pasta, use plenty of salted boiling water and toss it with the sauce straight after draining. The exact time can vary slightly with the water and the pot, so it is worth tasting a piece a minute before the end.
