As long-time fans, we’ve loved watching Rummo’s star continue to rise in the fiercely competitive pasta market—to the extent that the Italian Ministry of Economic Development issued a celebrative stamp in 2021 in honour of Rummo’s 175th anniversary. Rummo has been the fastest-growing premium pasta brand for the past five years in the United States, winning celebrity fans like actor Stanley Tucci, host of the recent foodie series Searching for Italy. Tucci claims that Rummo is his go-to pasta whenever he has access to a kitchen.
Antonio Rummo, President of Rummo, USA, explains a bit about why his brand is so popular:
“At Rummo, we’re passionate–even obsessive–about the quality of our pasta. We’ve been in the business for over 175 years, so tradition is fundamental. But we’re constantly innovating to deliver a higher quality product that stands above the rest.”
“We test, retest, verify and certify our pasta’s ‘al dente’ performance. Why is this so important? Al dente pasta is evenly resilient versus being mushy outside yet crunchy on the inside. It’s more beautiful on the plate. It’s forgiving if you cook it a tiny bit too long, leave it in the sauce, or reheat it the next day. It stays firm. It’s a sauce magnet, thanks to being cut by bronze dies that leave the surface slightly rough for maximum sauce absorption. And it’s more exciting to eat. Just ask any Italian!”
