Benedetto Cavalieri Orecchiette Pasta (500g)
Rustic, regional pasta with character. Benedetto Cavalieri’s Orecchiette is a traditional pasta shape from Puglia — small “ear-shaped” discs that hold sauce beautifully and deliver hearty texture in every bite.
Key Details & Characteristics
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Ingredients | 100% durum wheat semolina + water. (Traditional recipe; for full allergen & storage info see manufacturer.) |
| Weight / Packaging | 500 g pack. |
| Cooking time | 11-12 minutes for al dente texture. |

Taste & Serving Suggestions
-
Excellent with tomato sauce and meatballs — the dish soaks up sauce while the pasta stays chewy and satisfying.
-
Traditional Pugliese pairing: sautéed broccoli rabe (cime di rapa), garlic, extra virgin olive oil, and anchovies — simple, bitter-green lift with savoury undertones.
