Gentile Pennette: short tube-shaped dry pasta by Gentile (Gentile Pasta di Gragnano IGP range); ingredients: durum wheat semolina and water.

Gentile Pennette is short tube-shaped dry pasta made by the Italian brand Gentile. The product belongs to the Gentile Pasta di Gragnano IGP range.

Ingredients: durum wheat semolina and water. Cooking time according to the official site: 10 minutes. Pack sizes: 500 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.
