Maccheroncini Pasta di Gragnano Organic IGP – Optimized Description

Experience one of Italy’s most iconic pasta shapes with Maccheroncini Organic IGP from Pastai Gragnanesi, crafted in the legendary pasta-making town of Gragnano, near Naples. Made with 100% Organic Italian Durum Wheat Semolina and pure local spring water from the slopes of Mount Faito, this pasta delivers the authentic taste and texture that Gragnano is famous for.

Why This Pasta Is Special

• IGP Certified – Guarantees origin, tradition, and quality.

• Bronze-Cut – Creates a rough, porous surface that holds sauces beautifully.

• Slow-Dried – Enhances flavor, aroma, and digestibility, just like traditional handmade pasta.

• High Protein Semolina (14.5%) – Gives exceptional bite, structure, and cooking performance.

Taste & Texture

Maccheroncini is a short, cylindrical pasta with a firm, chewy texture that stays al dente. Its shape is ideal for:

• Tomato and vegetable sauces

• Baked pasta dishes (pasta al forno)

• Creamy or meat-based sauces

• Classic southern Italian recipes

The slow drying process encourages natural fermentation that enhances aroma, depth of flavor, and the signature “old-world” pasta taste.

Production Method

• Carefully selected organic durum wheat

• Mixed with Gragnano mineral water

• Bronze-extruded for texture

• Slowly dried at low temperatures for superior flavor

• Quality-checked at every stage for consistency and excellence
