With origins in Rome, Rigatoni is a ridged tube-shaped pasta that captures chunkier sauces and meaty ragùs. Rigatoni is great for baked pasta dishes and pairs well with other Southern Italian favorites like spicy peppers and Italian sausage. DeLallo Pasta comes from the town where pasta was born, a region near Naples, at the beginning of the Amalfi Coast. The art of making our pasta begins with the very best quality wheat. We carefully choose wheat with the highest gluten index, gluten content and protein content. All of these characteristics affect how the pasta cooks, as well as its taste and texture. The durum wheat is milled into coarse ground semolina flour and then carefully kneaded with cold, fresh, mineral-rich mountain spring water. We dry our pasta slowly at low temperatures to reproduce the traditional way of making pasta. This method respects the ingredients, preserving the pasta’s color, texture and aroma. Made in Italy with an exclusive blend of the highest quality durum wheat. Extruded with traditional bronze dies for a rougher sauce-capturing surface area. Always cooks up al dente. A ridged, tube-shaped pasta perfect scooping up sauces and ingredients.
