Rigatoni Giganti Pasta

Giuseppe Cocco

This pasta is produced by Pastificio Giuseppe Cocco in Abruzzo, Italy, using durum wheat semolina, bronze-die extrusion, and slow drying. Rigatoni giganti are an oversized version of classic rigatoni—extra-large ridged tubes with straight-cut edges. Their size and ridges make them perfect for hearty, chunky sauces, baked pasta dishes, or stuffing with cheese or meat before baking. The rustic surface created by bronze dies ensures sauces cling well to the pasta’s exterior.
