Santa Maria Pasta Cavatappi is a type of pasta that is characterized by its spiral, corkscrew-like shape. It is a tube-shaped pasta with a ridged surface that twists and turns, creating a unique texture that is perfect for holding onto sauces and other ingredients.
This pasta is made from high-quality durum wheat semolina flour and water, and it is extruded through bronze dies to give it its rough, textured surface. The pasta is then dried slowly at low temperatures, which helps to preserve its flavor and texture.
Santa Maria Pasta Cavatappi is versatile and can be used in a variety of pasta dishes, from simple butter and cheese sauces to more complex dishes with vegetables, meats, or seafood. It is an excellent choice for pasta salads, as its shape holds up well to dressings and other ingredients.
