A Beloved Classic with Southern Italian Soul – Imported to Rochester, MN
Straight from the heart of Puglia, Chef Pasquale’s Penne Rigate is a timeless Italian favorite, made with 100% durum wheat semolina and extruded through traditional bronze dies for a rustic, sauce-loving texture. The ridged surface (“rigate”) and diagonal cut give this pasta its signature ability to soak up flavor—perfect for baked dishes, hearty meat sauces, or light primavera blends.
Each batch is slow-dried at low temperatures, preserving its golden hue, firm bite, and deep, nutty flavor. Crafted with generations of tradition and imported exclusively to Rochester, MN, this penne is a pantry essential at Pasquale’s Neighborhood Pizzeria & Italian Imports—where quality is never compromised and every bite tastes like home.
