Overview

La Fabbrica della Pasta Paccheri di Gragnano is a traditional Italian pasta made in the town of Gragnano, known for its centuries-old pasta-making tradition. Paccheri are large, tubular pasta pieces that are slightly ridged, making them perfect for holding onto hearty, rich sauces. Their size and texture allow them to absorb the full flavors of the sauce, offering a satisfying bite. La Fabbrica della Pasta creates this exceptional product using premium ingredients and traditional methods, ensuring a top-quality pasta with deep, authentic flavor.

Quality & Sourcing

La Fabbrica della Pasta Paccheri di Gragnano is made with 100% Italian durum wheat semolina, sourced from the best wheat fields in Italy. Gragnano, often referred to as the “City of Pasta,” is renowned for its ideal climate and the purest water, both contributing to the distinctive texture and flavor of the pasta. Paccheri are extruded through bronze dies, which give them a rough texture that allows sauces to cling more effectively. The pasta is slow-dried at low temperatures, preserving its natural wheat flavor and ensuring a firm texture when cooked.

Versatility

La Fabbrica della Pasta Paccheri di Gragnano is a versatile pasta that pairs excellently with a variety of sauces. Its large size and ridged surface make it perfect for thick, meat-based sauces such as ragù alla bolognese, braised meat sauces, or sausage and mushroom sauce. Paccheri is also ideal for baking dishes like pasta al forno and stuffed paccheri, where it holds its shape and absorbs the flavors beautifully. Additionally, it works well with creamy sauces, seafood preparations, and vegetable-based sauces, making it a great choice for both traditional and innovative pasta dishes.
