Category: Biona
Biona pasta is made in a traditional Pastificio in the Dolomite mountains of Northern Italy. Our ingredients are simple - only the best quality organic Durum Wheat and Alpine water.
The ridges on these shells hold sauce beautifully, and they keep a nice al dente bite even after a few minutes extra on the stove. Cooked up a big batch for a weeknight dinner and the texture felt genuinely fresh, not like typical boxed pasta.
These little shells have a lovely, almost nutty taste from the organic durum wheat, and they cooked up perfectly al dente in about nine minutes. You can tell they're made with quality ingredients, and they held the sauce in their grooves just right without getting mushy.
The shells held their shape beautifully through a long, slow simmer, and you can really taste the clean, simple wheat flavor from that Alpine water. This is my go-to for a hearty baked pasta dish now.
