More Info

Casarecce are elongated, S-shaped pasta tubes with a slightly twisted, rolled appearance. The twisted shape and rough surface texture help the pasta hold onto thick and chunky sauces, ensuring every bite is filled with flavour.

Texture & Cooking

The rolled edges provide a pleasant chewiness, making them enjoyable to eat.

Sauce Pairings

Casarecce is incredibly versatile and pairs well with a wide range of sauces, especially those with chunky or hearty ingredients.

  • Pesto: The nooks and crannies of casarecce are perfect for holding and capturing the vibrant flavours of basil pesto.
  • Tomato-based sauces: Casarecce’s shape complements tomato-based sauces with vegetables, meat, or seafood, ensuring a satisfying sauce-to-pasta ratio.
  • Creamy sauces: Casarecce works wonderfully with creamy sauces like Alfredo, carbonara, or mushroom cream sauce, providing a delightful contrast in textures.
