With their ruffled edges and cup-like shape, gigli are perfect for capturing thick, hearty sauces such as ragùs and meat-based sauces. They also pair beautifully with vegetable or mushroom sauces such as those with peas or mushrooms.
We use premium bronze casts to impart to our pasta a lovely porous texture, to which sauces stick more easily. To achieve a classic al dente consistency, our artisanal pasta undergoes a slow drying process at 30°C for 12 to 20 hours, depending on thickness. This ensures the centre of the pasta stays firmer and doesn’t cook as much once plunged into boiling water. Thanks to this consistency, your pasta dishes will be a success, every time.
