Fabbrica della Pasta IGP Vesuvio, 500g

Description

Vesuvio pasta is produced in Gragnano, Italy. It’s named after the volcano that rises above the Bay of Naples. 

This short, spiral pasta shape has nooks and crannies that trap sauces. Pair it with bold flavours to delight dinner guests. It’s fantastic with tomato sauce flavoured with chilli and ‘nduja.

For something a little different, try a romesco-inspired sauce. Blitz roasted red peppers and tomatoes with garlic and almonds. You can blend until smooth or leave it a little chunky. Mix the sauce with Vesuvio pasta and top with Parmesan.

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: 9 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.
