Gragnano IGP Pasta – Rigatoni Paccheri 500 g
Our pasta is produced in a historic pasta factory in Gragnano, in the province of Naples, using bronze dies and a slow drying process, in accordance with tradition and the regulations of the Gragnano IGP Pasta Consortium.
Description
The first pasta production dates back to the late 16th century, with the first family-run pasta factories.
In the 17th century, following a severe famine that struck the Kingdom of Naples, pasta became a staple food in the local diet.
Naples and Gragnano offer the ideal climatic conditions for pasta production.
By the second half of the 19th century, Gragnano’s pasta factories had reached the pinnacle of international recognition.
This legacy was officially cemented in October 2013, when “Pasta di Gragnano” was awarded the Protected Geographical Indication (PGI).
