Special Cut Rhuote Wheels Pasta

Giuseppe Cocco

This pasta is produced by Pastificio Giuseppe Cocco in Abruzzo, Italy, using durum wheat semolina, bronze-die extrusion, and slow natural drying. Rhuote (also known as ruote or “wagon wheels”) are round, wheel-shaped pasta with open spokes. Their playful shape makes them popular in soups, pasta salads, or baked casseroles, as the openings hold bits of sauce and vegetables. As part of the “Special Cut” line, this pasta showcases traditional yet whimsical Italian pasta forms.
