The classic penne rigate pasta shape dating back to 1865, and it’s been popular in Italy and abroad ever since. With its tubular shape and ridges, it’s a perfectly versatile noodle. Cheesy baked pastas, tossed with seared cherry tomatoes, chilled salads, meaty sauces – penne rigate can do it all. Nestled in the mountain town of Campobasso in southern Italy, La Molisana has crafted pasta since 1912.
