Tortiglioni 5kg Barilla

Characteristics Tortiglioni is one of the many macaroni variations, one of the oldest shapes born in Naples. Their name has a precise origin: "tortiglione" is a characteristic design when working on a lathe which has a spiral scoring and this is what distinguishes them. Theirs is a particularly versatile shape and, at the same time, original, that by tradition prefers strong bodied flavours. Tortiglioni have an unmistakable elegance that comes from their simplicity. Their shape seems to have been created to hold the sauce that voluptuously penetrates inside and out, among the spirals of the scoring, to release its fragrance only in the palate. Pasta with its own personality, Tortiglioni love thick and full bodied sauces, whether they are sumptuous meat sauces or refined with a mushroom and cream base; they are also excellent for preparing oven baked pasta dishes.
