Casarecce
Cooking time: 12 min
Casarecce were born in Sicily, an island with a profound tradition. Barilla, Italy's most loved pasta, reinterpreted their precious shape, enhancing with its deep-rooted passion for quality, the excellence of pasta and the perfect al dente (this means that the best way to know when the pasta is cooked correctly, it must offer little resistance "to the bite") cooking consistency.
This is why Barilla proposes these exceptional treasure chests of pasta in a range containing the most creative shapes: La Collezione Barilla. Dedicated to those who love pasta in its most sophisticated outfit, Casarecce gratify your creativity in the kitchen, offering with any sauce an authentic feast for the eyes and palate.

The Shape
Casarecce La Collezione Barilla have an original spinning shape that stays curved on the edges, reminding us of ancient scrolls.
This delicate sheltered design makes them ideal to huddle inside them, as in a treasure chest, all the preciousness of traditional Mediterranean sauces. The smooth porous surface offers a perfect support also for delicate vegetable sauces.

Suggestions for use
Elegant and fanciful, Casarecce La Collezione Barilla are truly great with all sauces belonging to the good Italian cuisine, enhancing flavours and colours of all ingredients. Barilla suggests you try them with typically Mediterranean sauces.
For example, try them with the green aromatic harmony of pesto alla genovese, which you can find in Barilla Sauces, where basil, garlic, olive oil and pecorino cheese seem a true celebration of flavours. Perhaps try also adding potatoes and string beans for a richer yet delicate flavour. Do not forget the appetizing combination of small cuttlefish and lively small tomatoes, which Casarecce are able to interpret in an excellent manner. This way, you will have a very exclusive dish of Italian pasta.
Where there is Barilla there is Italy.
