100% Italian Grain Ziti Corti Rigati IGP - 500g

Ziti Corti Rigati from Afeltra are made with 100% Italian Durum Wheat Semolina mixed with water from Gragnano.  Afeltra only uses traditional bronze extruding machines, giving the artisanal pasta a rough texture with many pores which help to better absorb the pasta sauce when finishing the dish. Afeltra Ziti Corti Rigati are also slowly dried at a low temperature for up to 48 hours which helps the protein structure in the pasta stay strong allowing for a better al dente texture!

Ziti Corti Rigati is a typical Neapolitan shape of pasta. The word Ziti in Neapolitan dialect means the betrothed or the bridegroom. Ziti pasta are usually served as the first course of a wedding reception.

Enjoy this pasta with an eggplant sauce or bake them with meat ragù, tomato sauce and mozzarella fiordilatte cheese.
