Gentile Pappardelle - Pasta di Gragnano IGP - 500g

🏛️ Origin & Craftsmanship

The pappardelle from Pastificio Gentile come from Gragnano, the "pasta capital" of Italy. Since the 16th century, this town in Campania has stood for first-class, artisanally produced pasta. The Gentile family business has been producing pasta using traditional methods since 1876 and proudly bears the "Pasta di Gragnano IGP" seal – a protected geographical indication that guarantees the highest quality.

🌾 Ingredients with history

Only Italian durum wheat of the Senatore Capelli variety is used – an ancient, high-quality wheat variety with a particularly intense flavor. This produces a dough that is pressed through bronze dies. The result: a velvety, slightly rough surface that perfectly absorbs sauces.

🔥 Gently dried – with time and patience

After being shaped, the pasta is slowly dried for up to 42 hours at a maximum of 50 °C. This gentle method preserves the aromas, ensures the perfect bite, and makes the pasta particularly easy to digest.

Due to their shape and texture, pappardelle ribbons are perfect for serving with sauces or pesto.
