La pasta asciutta più deliziosa nei supermercati americani!Nov 08, 2011
By Customer Formerly Known as Giordano Bruno The finest pasta in American supermarkets ... if you're lucky, that is! But if you're not so lucky and your local market doesn't carry Rustichella d'Abruzzo products, if Golden Grain is the best on your market's shelves, then it's good to know that you can buy this 'gourmet' stuff on-line.
Rustichella makes its pastas in all the quaint traditional shapes: farfalle, bucatini, penne, tagliatelli, ecc. They also make black pasta with squid ink and whole wheat penne rigati, as well as marketing pasta sauces and Italian fagioli. As a general rule, heavier pasta shapes want richer sauces and thinner shapes, down to spaghettini, want lighter sauces. Ordinary spaghetti and linguine made by Rustichella are excellent 'al burro' , with just butter, Parmigiano cheese, and black pepper, or 'aglio e olio', garlic and olive oil. Linguine are already too heavy for 'alle vongole', clam sauce.
What makes Rustichella better? It's made with the hardest of hard wheat, giving even a cook without much sense of time a chance to serve "pasta al denti". It's extruded through antique bronze grids, giving it a rough surface that holds even the lightest sauces. Beyond that, I don't know the family secrets, but I know it tastes better even than other imported brands like Barilla and De Cecco.
