DeLallo, Tortigloni Pasta, 16 oz Bag, (4 Pack)

From the Naples region, Tortiglioni is a twisted tube pasta with ridges, or grooves that spiral around the noodle. This short-cut pasta comes from the Naples region and is a sturdy shape that shines with full-bodied sauces and meaty ragùs, like the famous slow-simmered Bolognese sauce. DeLallo Pasta begins with a high-quality blend of organic durum wheat. Wheat is chosen for its beautiful color, wonderful aroma and high protein content and is milled into coarse ground semolina flour and then carefully kneaded with cold, fresh, mineral-rich mountain spring water.. Pasta is extruded with bronze dies for a rough surface texture perfect for capturing sauces. True to tradition, we dry our pasta slowly at low temperatures to retain the pasta’s taste, texture and aroma. Tortiglioni is a great pasta shape for hearty oven-baked dishes with tomato sauces and melted cheeses. Besides baked pasta, these twisted tubes are perfect for catching hearty meat ragùs, cream sauces and rich tomato sauces. We love Tortiglioni in a creamy Parmesan sauce with prosciutto ham and sweet green peas.
