Afeltra, Organic Penne Rigate Pasta (EATALI collection)
Expertly crafted by Afeltra, this pasta is made according to time-honored traditions in Gragnano, Campania. As early as the 11th century, the first flour mills were constructed along the waterways flowing from Monti Lattari. Today, the more things change, the more they stay the same: since 1848, Afeltra continues to make pasta in the same pastificio using the same water from Monti Lattari and air-drying each shape in that same Mediterranean breeze.
Penne Rigate Pasta, often just called “penne,” is a cylinder-shaped pasta characterized by its diagonally cut ends and ridges that run along its outer surface. Penne is said to resemble a quill, or pen, hence the name “penne.” Penne lisce is a smooth penne pasta variation with the same angled ends, but without the ridges.
