Product Description

Rigatoni are big ridged tubes and belong to the straight cut dried pasta family, with a 16 mm diameter, an average length of 45 mm and a thickness ranging between 1,11 and 1,18 mm. Their provenance is uncertain but could easily be a speciality of the Campania region. It's a rather versatile format and is suitable with tomato or vegetable sauces, but the rigatoni are at their best with chunky meat sauces and ragus: stew sauces meat and mushrooms, veal and pork, sausages and giblets ragus. All these thick sauces however should be moistened enough to allow the sauce to cling to the pasta's ridges and hole.
