DeLallo Conchiglie Pasta Shells, 16 oz Bag, (4 Pack)

Pasta Shells, also known as Conchiglie in Italy are an iconic seashell-shaped pasta with a concave body ideal for scooping up thicker sauces and small bits of vegetables. 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. While larger shells are great for stuffed shells recipes, these smaller Pasta Shells are more versatile. Their concave bodies are the perfect scoops for heartier meat sauces, cream sauces, velvety cheese sauces, rich marinara sauces and chunky primavera-style vegetable sauces. We love Pasta Shells baked up in a grown-up macaroni and cheese with ricotta cheese, melty Mozzarella and Parmesan.
