Conchiglioni Durum Wheat Pasta, 500 g

Conchiglioni is a type of pasta shaped like a shell. Its name comes from the Italian word for "seashell," conchiglia. There are smaller versions of this pasta called conchiglie, and an even tinier version known as conchigliette.

This pasta is popular due to its unique shape and versatility in cooking. The shell shape allows sauces to cling to it effectively. Conchiglie is believed to have originated in southern Italy, where it was traditionally made with durum wheat semolina.

Conchiglioni is particularly versatile and can be used in a wide range of dishes. Its large size and unique shape make it ideal for holding thick, chunky sauces, making it a favorite for stuffed or baked pasta dishes. The pasta's nooks and crannies are perfect for capturing small pieces of meat, vegetables, and cheese, ensuring a delightful burst of flavors in every bite.

This conchiglioni from Pastificio Fiorillo is crafted exclusively from Italian bronze-drawn durum wheat semolina and undergoes slow drying to retain its taste, nutrition, and health benefits. This process makes it perfect for pairing with any type of sauce.
