Rustichella d'Abruzzo Bucatini are long, thick strands of pasta with a narrow hole running through the middle, packed in a bulk bag with a net weight of 1.5 kg (3.3 lb). Rustichella d'Abruzzo is a family pasta maker in Abruzzo, Italy. Its pasta is drawn through bronze dies and dried slowly at low temperature, so the strands come out with a rough, matte surface that sauce clings to.

Ingredients: durum wheat semolina, water. Contains wheat.

Cook in plenty of salted boiling water until al dente; follow the time printed on the bag. Bucatini is the Roman pasta for amatriciana with tomato, guanciale and pecorino, and in Sicily it goes into pasta con le sarde with sardines and wild fennel. Any hearty tomato sauce works. The large bag suits families and frequent pasta cooks.
