Rustichella d'Abruzzo Penne is a pasta that embodies the essence of Italian tradition, crafted with passion in Abruzzo, Italy. Made from carefully selected durum wheat semolina and blended with pristine mountain water, each batch is created using time-honored techniques that enhance both flavor and texture.
What makes Rustichella Penne stand out is its distinct ridged surface, achieved through bronze extrusion, which allows sauces to cling perfectly to every bite. Unlike industrially produced pasta, it undergoes a slow drying process at low temperatures, preserving the wheat’s natural aroma and ensuring a rich, firm texture when cooked.
