Ingredients & dietary info
Full ingredients: Durum wheat semolina, water.
Extra-wide ribbons from Gragnano, made for hearty ragu, braised meats and creamy mushroom sauces. The rough, bronze-die surface holds every bit of sauce. Just durum wheat semolina and water, slow dried, and ready in 9 minutes. A 17.6 oz bag serves 4 to 6.
Pappardelle are the widest of the classic flat ribbons. Their name comes from the Italian pappare, to gobble up. They are the traditional partner for slow-cooked ragu, game and mushrooms, because a wide ribbon carries a lot of sauce.
Bronze dies leave a rough, matte surface that sauce clings to, and slow drying at about 45 °C for 24 to 60 hours, as our label describes, keeps the pasta firm through cooking. It is all made in Gragnano, the town near Naples that has made dried pasta for centuries and now holds an EU protected geographical indication.
Prefer a slimmer ribbon? Our Gragnano tagliatelle is a little narrower and just as rough. For a baked dish, try our Gragnano lasagne sheets.
An elegant dinner with almost no work. The wide ribbons carry the truffle and butter into every bite.
Add the cooking water a little at a time. You want a silky coating, not a soup.
