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 dAlbaro (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.
