Fabbrica della Pasta IGP Lucky Chilli Pepper Curnciell, 500g

Description

Lucky chilli pepper curnciell is a dried pasta shape from Campania. Its shape is inspired by a traditional Neapolitan amulet, thought to attract good luck. 

La Fabbrica della Pasta adds chilli powder and sweet paprika to the dough. It turns the pasta deep red and adds a hint of spice. It cooks in just five minutes - perfect for midweek meals.

Toss curnciell pasta with San Marzano tomato sauce. Tongue-tingling chilli balances the sweetness of the tomatoes. Top with Parmesan for a cosy, comforting meal.

La Fabbrica della Pasta uses traditional recipes passed down through generations. Their pasta is slow-dried at low temperatures and extruded through bronze dies, resulting in a denser, stronger pasta. This gives the pasta a rough surface that holds sauces well.

Cooking time: 5 minutes.

In 2012, La Fabbrica della Pasta became the first pasta factory to receive IGP status. IGP stands for Indicazione Geografica Protetta (Protected Geographical Indication). It is assigned to products with a quality or reputation dependent on their geographical origin.

Store in a cool, dry place.
