Penne originates from southern Italy. It is a tube-shaped pasta with angled ends. This version is made from peas with a mild flavour and green colour, it can be slightly firmer than other gluten free pasta such as red lentil or corn but still softer than wheat.
Overcooking will make it go soft but unlike an oat pasta it will not actively fall apart, as a result if you are just switching to a gluten free pasta then this may eb the easiest to start with initially.

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.
