Mafaldine 500g Rummo

Mafaldine pasta, also known as Reginette, is a type of ribbon-shaped pasta that originated in Italy. It is named after Princess Mafalda of Savoy, who was the daughter of King Victor Emmanuel III. Mafaldine pasta is characterized by its long, flat, and wide shape with ruffled edges, resembling a ribbon or a narrow lasagna noodle.

This pasta is made from durum wheat semolina, which gives it a firm texture and allows it to hold up well when cooked. Its wide surface area and ruffled edges make it perfect for capturing and holding onto sauces, making it a popular choice for rich and hearty dishes.

Mafaldine pasta pairs well with a variety of sauces, including creamy and meat-based sauces. Its shape and texture make it ideal for dishes like Bolognese, carbonara, and Alfredo. It can also be used in pasta salads or served with simple olive oil and garlic-based sauces.

Cooking mafaldine pasta is similar to cooking other types of pasta. It should be boiled in a large pot of salted water until al dente, which means it is cooked but still firm to the bite. The cooking time may vary, but it typically takes around 8-10 minutes.

Once cooked, mafaldine pasta can be tossed with the desired sauce and ingredients or used as a base for various pasta dishes. Its unique shape and texture add visual appeal to any dish, making it a favorite among pasta lovers.
