Mancini Paccheri Pasta – Italian Durum Semolina 500g

Mancini's paccheri are the showstopper pasta of southern Italy — fat, ribbed tubes designed to cradle rich sauces and hold onto every drop. Made from 100% durum wheat semolina using methods refined over generations, these bronze-cut tubes deliver the rough texture and authentic bite that distinguish artisanal Italian pasta from industrial alternatives.

Paccheri originated in Campania, where the short, wide format became synonymous with dishes built around seafood, tomato, and cream. The durum semolina base gives these tubes their characteristic golden color and slightly nutty flavor — qualities that shine whether you're tossing them with a simple aglio e olio or a more elaborate ragù.

How to enjoy

• Toss with fresh tomato, basil, and a drizzle of good olive oil for a simple summer dish.
• Stuff with ricotta and herbs, bake briefly with tomato sauce for a baked pasta course.
• Pair with seafood — clams, mussels, or langoustines in white wine sauce.
• Dress with a slow-cooked meat ragù and Parmigiano-Reggiano for a classic celebration meal.

⭐ Why we love this

Mancini paccheri represent the gold standard of Italian pasta craftsmanship — bronze-cut, not polished, which creates that essential rough surface that grips sauce rather than sliding off. This is the pasta Southern Italians reach for when they want drama on the plate and authentic texture in every bite.

🍷 Pairing suggestion

Serve with a crisp white wine like Greco di Tufo or Fiano from Campania — the same region where paccheri was born. The wide tubes are perfect for seafood-forward preparations, so pair with mussels or clams in white wine sauce and enjoy the synergy of pasta, wine, and Mediterranean ingredients together.
