🍽️ Taste and texture

✔️ Flavour: neutral, with a slight grainy note – a great base that allows the sauce and other ingredients to shine.
✔️ Texture: firm and al dente when cooked (offering slight resistance to the bite), with ridges that help the sauce cling better.

🍳 Uses in the kitchen

This pasta is very versatile:
✔️ With tomato sauce: classics such as Penne all’Arrabbiata or Penne pomodoro.
✔️ With meat ragù: penne perfectly holds onto pieces of meat and sauce.
✔️ Creamy sauces: ideal with mushrooms, ham or a cheese sauce.
✔️ Baked dishes: as ‘pasta al forno’ with cheese and vegetables or meat.
✔️ Cold salads: served chilled with pesto or vegetables – delicious both hot and cold.

🍲 Preparation

Add approx. 100 g of pasta to 1 litre of boiling salted water.
Cook for ~11 minutes until al dente (firm to the bite), then drain. (Cooking time may vary depending on the brand / instructions on the packet).

💡 Tip: Do not rinse after cooking – this helps the sauce cling to the pasta better.
