When it comes to Italian cuisine, there is one principle everyone should know: not all pasta is the same, and each of our "Spicial Sauces" has its ideal match. The shape, texture, and ability to hold sauce make certain types of pasta perfect for enhancing our sauces. Here is a small guide on how to dress pasta to create harmonious pairings and bring out the best in every dish. Of course, these are only suggestions: every sauce can be enjoyed with your preferred pasta.
Tagliatelle/Pappardelle with Mushrooms sauce
Tagliatelle, with their wide and rough surface, are perfect for this creamy and enveloping sauce. The Mushrooms sauce – rich, aromatic, and velvety – pairs perfectly with this type of pasta, delivering a balanced and intense culinary experience. Ideal for those looking for a meat-free sauce for tagliatelle.
Penne with Olives Tomato sauce
Penne, with their tubular shape and angled ends, hold this bold-flavored sauce very well. The Olives Tomato sauce, spicy and Mediterranean, finds in penne the perfect match to enhance every bite. A dish that tastes like summer.
Rigatoni with Tomato Tandoori sauce
Rigatoni are a substantial pasta, with a wide diameter and ridges that capture the sauce. The Tomato Tandoori sauce is enhanced by the structure of rigatoni. An ideal pairing for a traditional lunch with a spicy and innovative twist.
Spaghetti with Tomato sauce
Spaghetti, smooth and versatile, are a classic of Italian cuisine. Perfect for traditional dishes like spaghetti with fish sauce, they also shine in more creative combinations. The Tomato sauce, with its exotic and aromatic touch, blends Italian tradition with oriental influences.
Fusilli with Zucchini sauce
Fusilli, thanks to their spiral shape, hold sauce perfectly. The Zucchini sauce, spicy yet delicate, intertwines with the pasta to create a fresh and balanced dish. Our zucchini pasta sauce is perfect for those seeking a flavorful vegetarian meal.
Of course, many combinations are possible: there is nothing stopping you from using fusilli with Mushrooms sauce or rigatoni with Tomato Tandoori. Try these pairings and let the flavors tell their story.
