Anellini by Rustichella d'Abruzzo (17.6 ounce)

These thin little pasta rings known as Anellini are one of the first pasta shapes eaten by Italian children. They are ideal shape for soups. They also work well for salads and baked dishes. Serve with butter & cheese, fresh ricotta & cherry tomatoes, or in a clear chicken broth. For soups, it is wonderful in just clear chicken broth or beef broth with a poached egg and topped generously with Parmigiano. The size is just right for preparing the classic Sicilian dish, Timballo (Pasta Cake). Rustichella d'Abruzzo was born in 1924 in Penne with the name Pastificio Gaetano Sergiacomo and today it is the brand of artisan pasta used by the best Chefs in the world. Rustichella d’Abruzzo pasta is made with the finest quality grains, blended with pure mountain spring water, extruded through bronze dies and slowly air-dried for a rustic texture that holds sauce beautifully.
