Cavatappi No. 87 Pasta, 16 Oz, Authentic, Slow Dried, Made with Durum Wheat, Versatile Pasta for Sauces & Recipes, Made in Italy

This pasta is delicious and taste fresh from the box way better ingredients than most pastas that feel slimy and slippery. This actually taste like pasta that I will remember as a kid they’re drying process is part of the biggest reason why it taste so good and the texture is perfect. This is the only pasta I will be buying moving forward. Check the labels on the other pastas they’re mostly plastic.

De Cecco Orecchiette No. 91 is one of my absolute favorites, especially for soups. The small, ear-shaped pieces are perfectly designed to cradle broth and catch vegetables or bits of meat in every bite. They don’t get lost in the soup and make each spoonful feel hearty and satisfying. What really stands out is the quality. Like other De Cecco pastas, it’s made with high-quality durum wheat semolina and holds its shape beautifully. Even after simmering in soup, the orecchiette stay pleasantly al dente instead of turning mushy. The size is just right—not too big, not too small—and it adds great texture without overpowering the other ingredients. Whether it’s a simple vegetable soup, chicken broth, or a bean-based soup, this pasta elevates the whole dish.

I love this pasta! Good quality, reasonably priced. My new favorite pasta shape for just about anything! Tastes and texture what you would expect in a pasta. Cook time is about 12 minutes. Pasta holds onto sauces like a champ. Would recommend to anyone who hasn't ever had "God's Thumbnail".

My fav pasta brand, it taste fresh, chewy not easily break.

We tried this brand just to try it. Great noodles for our mac and cheese. They were a good texture and mixed in with sauce just right.

This penne pasta cooks evenly and maintains a nice, firm texture when prepared al dente, making it perfect for a variety of dishes. The flavor is mild and pairs well with different sauces, from creamy Alfredo to hearty marinara. It holds its shape well and doesn’t get mushy if cooked properly, which is a big plus. However, the packaging could be improved since it isn’t resealable, requiring an extra container for storage. The portion size is generous for the price, and the quality is consistent. Overall, it’s a reliable pantry staple that works well for quick and tasty meals!

Good pasta. Must say it has a harder texture. It doesn't break up in water absorb sauces well taste is good vitamins with no GMO

Wonderful pasta and well worth the price. Recommend.
