Gentile Le Ruote Organic Pasta is an artisan Italian pasta made by Pastificio Gentile, a historic pasta producer from Gragnano, Italy, a town famous worldwide for its pasta and recognized for traditional pasta production methods and high-quality durum wheat.
Le Ruote means “the wheels” in Italian, and the pasta is shaped like small wheels or gears. This pasta shape is very popular in Italy, especially for family meals, because it is fun, easy to eat, and holds sauce well in the spokes of the wheel.
Pastificio Gentile produces their pasta using organic Italian durum wheat semolina, bronze dies that create a rough surface so sauces cling better, and slow low-temperature drying to preserve the flavor, aroma, and texture of the wheat.
This pasta pairs especially well with:
• Tomato sauce
• Cream sauces
• Pesto
• Meat sauces
• Vegetable sauces
• Baked pasta dishes
• Mac and cheese style dishes
• Sausage sauces
• Olive oil and parmesan
Organic, bronze-cut, and slow-dried, Gentile Ruote pasta is a fun and traditional Italian pasta shape that holds sauce well and is perfect for everyday pasta dishes and family meals.
