Pennette is a versatile pasta that works well with all types of sauces. The root of pennette is penne which means pens. One of these is ribbed, which allows the pasta to add more sage.
This pasta combines the unique properties of Pasta di Gragnano with the unmistakable flavor of whole grain wheat.
The selected semolina wheat used in this pasta is strictly of Italian origin and of the best quality, including the Senatore Cappelli variety which is renowned for cooking to al-dente. It also gives the pasta a golden color. Bronze cut pasta molds create a rough and porous texture much like homemade pasta. The low temperature drying method known as cirillo preserves the distinct texture and aroma.
