NEW LOWER PRICE! Bucatini by Gentile: Organic, 1.1 lb, 12/CS

A classic bucatini from Gragnano in the Naples area, this thick spaghetti with a hole through each strand is hard to find and very popular, especially when cooked alla Amatriciana (named for the town of Amatrice, near Rome), a traditional dish served with guanciale pork meat in a hot tomato sauce. Made with 100% Italian wheat.

*Pasta di Gragnano achieved in 2010 the IGP mark (Indicazione Geagrafica Protetta). This community recognition represents the reaching of an important objective for pasta makers, always working with respect and devotion for the entire Gragnano city where the pasta is its own icon. The EU assigns the IGP mark to agricultural food which are linked to a geographical origin basing on unique characteristics and production phases; this implies the respect of straight production rules indicated in the "disciplinari".
