Riccioli means ‘large curls’ and this corkscrew like pasta is a great shape for all types of sauces, including cacio & pepe.
Rummo pasta has been produced since 1846, making the company older than unified Italy itself! The pasta has a 14.5% protein count, much higher than other pastas, this means the pasta holds its shape and texture after cooking, whilst the bronze die casting of the pasta gives it a rougher exterior which carries the flavour of sauces better. Rummo’s slow processing approach to pasta means that unlike generic rapidly produced pasta, Rummo pasta is a delicate and authentically Italian base to many meals.
