Wide-cut and hearty, these ribbon-like noodles were made for pairing with meaty ragùs and chunky sauces. The golden, hand-crafted noodles cook up silky and rich. Like all of Rustichella d’Abruzzo’s pastas, this pappardelle clings to sauce very well, thanks to extrusion through traditional bronze dies and slow drying—it retains a pleasant chew when cooked al dente. The pappardelle come portioned in nests that look like they came straight from a local pasta shop.
