Marella Nastri "Ribbons" Pasta: An Artisanal and Organic Delight
Product Overview: Marella Nastri, or "Ribbons" pasta, is a handcrafted, organic pasta that stands out with its one-inch broad, silky ribbon-like strands. This 1.1 lb pasta uses natural dehydrated vegetable dyes, including tomato, chile pepper, spinach, paprika, beetroot, and kurkuma, giving it a vibrant and appealing look. The selection of durum wheat ensures a delightful flavor, perfect for pairing with delicate sauces.
Culinary Uses: Ideal for dishes where the pasta itself is the star, complemented by light and flavorful sauces like basil pesto, creamy tomato, or even a simple garlic and olive oil dressing.
