Il Vecchio Pastificio di Gragnano Fusilloni IGP 500g

Generous spirals for rich ragù and chunky sauces

Large, open spirals with a firm bite and plenty of space for sauce to settle. Il Vecchio Pastificio di Gragnano’s fusilloni turn a bowl of pasta into something generous and inviting, with broad twists that gather pieces of tomato, mushrooms and slow-cooked ragù.

Made in Gragnano, Campania, from durum wheat semolina and water, the pasta is drawn through bronze dies to create a subtly rough surface. Slow drying at low temperatures completes a traditional production process that gives this pasta its distinctive character.

Fusilloni are especially well suited to sauces with texture. Try a rich beef ragù, roasted aubergine and tomato, or mushrooms cooked with garlic and parsley. The deep spirals hold small pieces of the dressing, so the sauce becomes part of each mouthful.

Finish the pasta in the pan with your sauce and a little reserved cooking water. Toss until glossy, then serve with freshly grated Parmesan or Pecorino.

Cook in plenty of boiling salted water, following the packet time and tasting before draining.
