Penne, originating from the Campania region in southern Italy, stand out as one of the most renowned and popular pasta shapes. The term "Penne" derives from the Italian words for quills or feather pens, referring to their large, straight tubes cut on the diagonal to resemble the point of a quill. The name "Rigate" signifies that these penne are ridged, providing an enhanced ability to capture and hold sauces. Recognized for their versatility, penne pasta is a perfect match for a wide range of sauces, from creamy to hearty, and it excels in al forno (oven-baked) dishes. The ridges on the surface of penne contribute to a delightful texture, ensuring that each bite is infused with the richness of the accompanying sauce. Enjoy the adaptability and classic charm of penne pasta, a culinary favorite that effortlessly elevates a variety of dishes.
