Started in a sleepy countryside village in southern Italy in 1982, Tarall’oro pasta is synonymous with quality. The folks that bring you this flawless product have been committed from the start to making rustic artisanal pasta using only the freshest and finest, all-natural ingredients. Just durum wheat semolina and water are used to form these curly, long, twisted noodles, which will take less than 15 minutes to prepare but will taste just like homemade. This is hearty and filling, which makes it the ultimate comfort food.
This pasta is good enough to eat with just a sprinkle of olive oil and a dash of salt, but you can dress it up with tomato, cream, or Bolognese sauces, or serve it cold in a pasta salad. Try it with grilled shrimp in a garlicky sauce, or a pair a lemon sauce with chicken for a protein-packed plate. Saute with vegetables like eggplant, tomatoes, onions, and asparagus, and add soft pieces of mozzarella or sprinkle with fresh pecorino or Parmesan.
