The 1kg Rummo Casarecce Professional Line caters for professional chefs. Loosely rolled lengthways and slightly twisted, Casarecce (‘homemade’) is perfectly sculpted to hold sauce inside its curved hollows. Originally made by wrapping small pieces of dough loosely around a metal rod, this Sicilian pasta is best served with eggplant, tomatoes, basil, cheese, and other typically Mediterranean ingredients.
The Rummo story began back in 1846, when Antonio Rummo launched the family business of milling wheat and making pasta in the town of Benevento, not far from Naples. Taking advantage of the region’s pure water and excellent grain, he launched a tradition of artisan pasta-making based on the proprietary ‘Lenta Lavorazione’ method—a slow-processing method that ensures a consistently high-performance pasta that remains ‘al dente’ after sautéing and double-cooking. The Rummo Casarecce Professional Line is the perfect exemplar of that love of tradition and care for detail.
