Bucatini – Artisanal Pasta (500g)

Bucatini (derived from the Italian buco, which means 'hole') are among the most iconic long pasta types from Central and Southern Italy. At first glance, it resembles thick spaghetti, but the secret lies inside: along its entire length runs a narrow, hollow channel. This clever design provides a unique texture and eating experience. Bucatini are the legendary partner of Roman and Southern Italian cuisine and form the absolute basis for an authentic Amatriciana, Carbonara or Cacio e Pepe.

Bucatini: The Hollow Classic of Italian Cuisine

In the authentic Italian culinary tradition, Bucatini are known for their unique combination of sturdiness and sauce absorption. Thanks to the hollow channel, the cooking water flows optimally through the pasta, ensuring even cooking and a wonderfully resilient al dente bite. Moreover, the sauce not only clings to the rough exterior but also seeps into the hollow core of the pasta. Thanks to the artisanal bronze extrusion and the patient low-temperature drying process, the pasta retains its full, natural grain flavour.

Traditional Combinations

Classic: The ultimate pasta for a classic Bucatini all'Amatriciana (with guanciale, pecorino and tomato), a rich Carbonara or a creamy Cacio e Pepe.
Alternative: Rich Southern Italian seafood sauces, Pasta con le Sarde (with sardines and fennel) or hearty vegetable sauces based on aubergine and tomato.
