DeCecco Rigatoni #24 Pasta, Italy - 500G

Rigatoni 24, 500g. De Cecco. Large, ridged, straight tubes of dried durum wheat. Bronze-die extruded, then dried slowly at a low temperature, so the surface stays rough and the bite stays firm. The hollow centre takes a chunky sauce.

An Italian restaurant boils it for a meat ragù or a thick tomato sauce, and bakes it when the dish goes in the oven. The ridges hold the sauce on the outside. A hotel kitchen uses the same box for a baked pasta on a banquet line. Wheat, so it is not for a gluten-free plate.

A 500g box is a retail and restaurant size. A small kitchen can cook one box for service, and the same box sits fine at home. Keep it cool and dry, and close the box after you open it.
