This organic penne follows the traditional southern Italian shape. It is tube-shaped and made from organic corn, giving it a rich yellow colour, and importantly, making it fully gluten free. It works well with tomato or light cream sauces. Like any gluten free pasta made from corn, be sure to cook carefully to avoid over-softening, remember it will continue cooking even after you take it off the heat so the key is to turn it out before it is ready.

Pasta d’alba is an organic pasta company founded by the Mainardi family in the hills around Alba, Italy. Alba is a region famous for its truffles, hazelnuts and has a long history of artisan, small-scale food production. The Mainardi family has been farming organically here since the 1980's, long before it was fashionable. The business is now run by three siblings, Luisa, Marco and Laura, who have kept the artisan, hands-on approach while letting modern machinery take care of the repetitive bits.
