Tortiglioni 83 made from durum wheat semolina Kg.5

THE ELEGANCE OF A PASTA SHAPE THAT EMBRACES EVERY FLAVOUR
Tortiglioni Barilla n°83 take their name from the “tortiglione”, a distinctive lathe-work pattern characterised by spiral grooves, similar to those running across the surface of this pasta shape. Thick and firm, they are designed to capture and hold sauces at their best. They pair particularly well with rich, dense sauces, from meat ragù to creamy sauces made with cream and mushrooms, and are also excellent for pasta bakes and oven-gratin preparations. The careful selection of durum wheat, milled in Italy, and a design developed to give tortiglioni Barilla a balanced thickness and full-bodied texture are at the heart of the quality of this pasta shape. The semolina is obtained from durum wheat milled in Italy, while the 5 kg format is particularly suited to the needs of professional foodservice, providing restaurants, hotels and kitchens serving large numbers of covers every day with a practical and convenient supply for service. Cooking time: 12 minutes; for every 100 g of pasta, approximately 1 litre of water and 7 g of salt are recommended. Alternatively, passive cooking can be used: after 2 minutes of active cooking, turn off the heat, cover the pot with a lid and allow the heat of the water to complete the cooking for the required time. This technique helps save energy and reduce CO₂ emissions without compromising the correct cooking of the pasta. Store in a cool, dry place.
