Organic Cavatappi Pasta, 1lb, Pack of 8

Hailing from Southern Italy, this fun springy pasta can be described as a twisted “corkscrew” with hole. As sturdy as it is whimsical, Cavatappi is ready to take on hearty sauces and chunky ingredients. We love it in cheesy baked pasta dishes with spicy sausage and peppers, as well as cold pasta salads with fresh vegetables. DeLallo 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 wheat. We carefully choose wheat with the highest gluten index, gluten content and protein content. All of these characteristics affect how the past 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.
