Penne originates from southern Italy. It is a short, tube-shaped pasta with angled ends. This organic penne pasta works well with tomato, cream or pesto sauces as it holds sauce inside the tube. We particularly enjoy with with basil pesto but penne arrabbiata is a true classic and is the perfect quick lunch, hot or cold. The key cooking time for organic penne is to cook until just firm enough to keep its shape but before it becomes too soft.

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.
