Enriched macaroni product. Since 1950. Made with bronze plates. The art of making pasta begins with the selection of the grain. We have selected this true durum wheat semolina from the Tavoliere delle Puglie where the climate and soil produces a grain that is unmatched in consistency and quality. The carefully milled semolina is then combined with cool natural water and kneaded gently to an exact consistency which is then exuded into various shapes through bronze plates. These bronze plates are what give our pasta its unique coarse texture that allows the sauce and the pasta to adhere to one another, permitting their individual flavors to marry into a delectable palate. DeLallo pasta follows artisan workmanship, which calls for the pasta to be dried slowly at low temperatures to retain nutrients and, most importantly, its full flavor. The result of our labor is authentic, natural Italian pasta with integrity. Thank you & enjoy! Made in Italy. Ingredients: Durum Wheat Semolina. Directions: Cook time: Ready in 13 minutes al dente in 12. Pasta by the pound. For every 1 lb. of pasta, use 5 qts. of water and 2 tbsp. of seal salt. Tips For: Perfect Pasta: Bring 5 qts. of water to a rolling boil. Once boiling, add 2 tbsp. of sea salt. Please don’t add oil. Now it’s time for the pasta! Remember to stir occasionally, so the pasta doesn’t stick. Check pasta for the al dente moment: 2-3 min. Prior to the end of pasta cook time. Take a bite to be sure. Once pasta is al dente and ready to drain, first scoop up a cup of the starchy pasta cooking water. This water can be added to the sauce later to perfect its consistency. Quickly drain the pasta water, but don’t rinsel rinsing removes essential starches needed to help sauces stick. (Only rinse if you are making cold pasta dishes to prevent sticking). Always finish by tossing hot pasta in a pan with warm sauce and cook together over high heat for about 2 min. Warnings: Contains wheat.
