De Cecco Orecchiette No. 91 is a tribute to the gastronomic tradition of Puglia, characterized by its typical hollow disk shape, smooth on the inside and rough on the outside. Made from premium quality durum wheat semolina, these orecchiette are designed to cradle and hold sauces in their distinctive hollow. The bronze-die drawing process provides ideal porosity, making them perfect for the classic pairing with broccoli rabe (cime di rapa) or for rich tomato and ricotta-based sauces. Thanks to slow drying at low temperatures, the pasta maintains a firm texture and impeccable cooking consistency, bringing the authenticity of a world-renowned regional shape to your table.

Ingredients

Durum wheat semolina, water.

History

Founded in 1886 in Fara San Martino, De Cecco is the global symbol of high-quality pasta. The brand built its success on respecting the "De Cecco Method": a rigorous selection of the finest durum wheat, the use of cold spring water, and bronze-die drawing. The secret of its excellence lies in the very slow drying process, which keeps the wheat's proteins and organoleptic properties intact, ensuring that authentic flavor and "al dente" firmness that make every dish a superior culinary experience. Choosing De Cecco means embracing a century-old tradition dedicated to perfection and a passion for Italian taste.
