Bucatini Pasta from Rustichella d’Abruzzo

Established in 1924, Rustichella pasta is made with selected durum wheat grown in the Abruzzo region and spring water from the Apennine mountains. The wheat is stone ground and mixed to form a dough that is extruded through bronze dies. These dies create a rough surface texture which enables sauce to cling to the pasta and give the pasta it’s unique grainy surface. The pasta is dried at low temperatures for approximately 50 hours, and it is this slow fermentation process that gives the pasta a superior taste and guarantees even cooking.

Bronze-Drawn for a Symphony of Sauce: Unlike mass-produced Bucatini, Rustichella d'Abruzzo's strands are bronze-drawn.

Every curve and crevice of the Bucatini becomes a flavor carrier, ensuring a perfect marriage of pasta and sauce in every bite.

Slow-Dried Perfection: Patience is a virtue at Rustichella d'Abruzzo. Their Bucatini is air-dried for up to 56 hours at low temperatures. This slow drying process allows the pasta to develop a deeper flavor and a more al dente texture,  resulting in delightful bite that holds its shape beautifully, no matter the sauce.
