You’ve never had penne as richly flavorful as this organic penne rigate from Zaccagni. Master pasta makers in Abruzzo, Zaccagni uses organic semolina flour to craft the best versions of every pasta they produce. Their penne rigate are medium-length narrow tubes with grooves that run the length of each piece. (“Rigate” means grooved.) This texture encourages sauce to cling to the pasta’s surface, making every mouthful extra-tasty!

The only ingredients in this artisan pasta are minimally processed, organically grown whole wheat semolina flour and pure spring water from the Majella mountains. The dough is pressed through 100-year-old bronze dies, coveted among pasta aficionados. Bronze dies create a rough texture as the pasta passes through them, leaving an uneven surface that’s perfect for absorbing sauce, making every bite more flavorful. Finally, it’s slow-dried at low temperatures to ensure it cooks up tender yet toothsome, with just the right amount of al dente resistance.

Abruzzo is a verdant gem on the eastern coast of Italy, midway down the country’s “boot.” The region is known for its wines, most famously montepulciano d’Abruzzo, and has miles of coastline on the Adriatic Sea. Abruzzo also has the highest concentration of national parkland in Europe, including the stunning peaks of the Majella mountains, home to golden eagles and stunning wildflowers. Zaccagni’s facility is set amongst the foothills of the Majella range, in the medieval town of Miglianico.

Founded by Gianfranco Zaccagni, the company is fiercely proud of its Abruzzo home. Look closely at their pasta packaging and you’ll notice that the transparent window is in the shape of the region! Zaccagni is a testament to the idea that when different experiences and cultures meet, the results are unique.

Penne rigate is well-suited to any tomato-based sauce, such as arrabbiata or vodka. It is a great choice for baked pasta casseroles; for baked dishes, subtract a few minutes from the recommended cook time and drain the pasta when extremely al dente, since it will finish cooking in the oven.
