DeLallo Organic Orzo is a pastina, or a tiny pasta cut, famous for its role in soups. These days, orzo is more than just a soup pasta, starring in picnic pasta salads, cheesy side dishes and more. Its name, orzo, comes from its tiny “barley” shape, which is slightly larger than a grain of rice. DeLallo Organic 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 certified organic wheat. We carefully choose certified-organic 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.
