Garofalo Organic Whole Wheat Mezze Maniche Rigate Pasta 500g Garofalo Organic Whole Wheat Mezze Maniche Rigate Pasta 500g

Mezze maniche rigate originated in northern Italy, where they were also called "maniche di frate", or monk sleeves, named after a garment worn in summer. It is a versatile shape suitable for heavy sauces but also for velvety creamy sauces and pasta bakes.

Garofalo, the Italian premium pasta manufacturer, has been making high-quality pasta since 1789 in Gragnano, near Naples, the birthplace of pasta.

Garofalo has always been a reference point of high quality for its products and production processes, made even more effective by the combination of technology and a century of artisan know-how.

Pasta is made only with water and durum wheat semolina, and only the best wheat will produce a delicious pasta. The quality of wheat is determined primarily by the quality and amount of gluten present. Garofalo uses only high-quality, robust durum wheat for its signature pasta products.

Garofalo pasta is formed using bronze dies, which creates a little friction on the surface of the pasta, making it a little rougher and more porous, allowing the sauce to cling to and be absorbed into the pasta for a delightful eating experience.
