Its ridged, diagonal-cut shape ensures superior sauce adherence and a firm, al dente texture. Perfectly suited for a variety of dishes, this 16 oz pack delivers authentic flavor and consistent quality that has earned it top rankings and rave reviews among pasta enthusiasts. ## Description De Cecco gently grinds the heart of each grain, mixes it with cold spring water, then kneads the dough slowly. This results in pasta with the exceptional de Cecco aroma, flavor, and consistency. Pasta easily cooks to perfection, has a great firm texture, and a delicious β€œfresh” pasta taste. It has a rougher surface, which helps the sauce stick to it. Since 1886 we have liked our pasta to be bronze drawn and slowly dried because we like it to fall into the plate full of taste, rough and always "al dente". Even though our taste has not changed, as we feel the same love for tradition, we have continued to improve our production technologies. Make de Cecco pasta the secret ingredient for your most amazing dishes.Buon Appetito! Penne Rigate are part of the short, diagonal cut, ridged pasta family and are one of the most well-known type of pasta, as well as being the most versatile in the kitchen. In Italian, the term "Penne" refers to the goose feather which was used historically to write with and was cut on a diagonal to achieve a really thin tip. The shape, obtained from a pasta tube, can be smooth or ridged, of varying length and has the typical diagonal cut of a quill. Penne are one of the few types of pasta for which there is an exact date when it was created. Indeed, in 1865, a pasta-maker from San Martino d'Albaro (Genoa), Giovanni Battista Capurro, requested and obtained a patent for a diagonal cutting machine. The patent was important because it meant the fresh pasta could be cut like a quill without crushing it and in different lengths from 3 to 5 centimetres (mezze "half" penne or penne). The document preserved in the Central Archive of the State of Rome reads: "Up until now, a diagonal cut could only be made by hand with a pair of scissors which, in addition to being slow and time-consuming, also resulted in an irregular cut which flattened the pasta". Penne Rigate are perfect for preparing oven-baked pasta or pasta dishes served with meat sauces made from pork or beef. This pasta is equally as good with vegetable based sauces and more in general, due to its versatility, for any recipe from the Mediterranean tradition, such as the classic condiment with tomato, basil, extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkling of parmesan. A classic combination is with Arrabbiata sauce. Available in 16.0 oz and 5 lb. Review: Makes excellent al dente pasta - Our picky family loves DeCecco pastas. It can be a pricier than the generic market brand or Barilla but it's well worth the price IMO. I put this on our monthly subscribe and save so we never forget or run out and it saves us a few pennies or I stock up when it goes on sale. Now for the important part - the flavor and texture. We cook our pasta al dente. The penne pasta has an excellent flavor and the texture is firm, never mushy, and does not fall apart. It has a nice chewy bite. It has a slightly course surface that allows the pasta sauce to stick to the surface. One box can feed our hungry family of 5 with a few sides and lots of meat sauce. We've also tried making our own homemade pasta but after a few tries, conceded that DeCecco is just superior and tastes better without the extra work. Just grab it, I promise you won't regret trying. Review: Best on the market. For taste and price - This is best pasta brand on the market. The taste is like home made i have made myself and chewy and yet tender.
