Penne, named after the nibs used to write in ancient times, is an icon in the pasta world. Originally invented in the 19th century in the Genoa region, this diagonally shaped tubular pasta is a favorite for its versatility. Belpasta penne rigate has subtle grooves that hold finer sauces, while the hollow center is perfect for larger pieces of vegetables or meat.

Belpasta penne is produced by hand using copper extrusion, which gives it a slightly rough texture that absorbs sauces perfectly. The careful slow drying process of 19 hours guarantees firmness and prevents breakage during cooking. This semi-wholemeal variant not only offers an authentic taste, but also a nutritious alternative.

Usage tips:

• Perfect for: Tomato or cream sauce, oven-baked pasta dishes, or a light dressing in a pasta salad.
• Serving suggestion: Combine with a rich bolognese sauce, grilled vegetables or a creamy pesto for a complete and tasty dish.
