Pastificio Carmiano Spaghetti alla Chitarra Pasta of Gragnano IGP 500g

Product Description

The gold standard of pasta from the world’s pasta capital.

Pastificio Carmiano Spaghetti alla Chitarra is a masterpiece of Gragnano craftsmanship. While standard spaghetti is round, these "Chitarra" noodles have a distinct square shape and a porous, rough surface. This texture is achieved through traditional bronze-die extrusion, which creates a "velvety" finish that clings to every drop of sauce.

Made with 100% premium Italian durum wheat and pure spring water from the Lattari Mountains, this pasta is slow-dried at low temperatures for up to 48 hours. This patient process preserves the wheat’s natural proteins and intense aroma, ensuring an impeccable al dente bite that you can truly feel.

Why Gragnano IGP Pasta is different:

• Gragnano IGP Certified: Guaranteed quality, origin, and traditional production methods from the only town in the world dedicated to pasta making.

• Bronze-Drawn (Trafilata al Bronzo): Creates a signature rough surface that "grabs" sauces instead of letting them slide off.

• Square-Cut Chitarra: Provides a more substantial, satisfying "chew" than traditional round spaghetti.

• Slow-Dried Excellence: Preserves the nutritional integrity and the authentic flavor of the wheat.

Pack Size: 500g Cooking Tip: Cook in salted boiling water. Because of its high protein content, this pasta holds its shape perfectly—drain it 1 minute early and finish it in the pan with your sauce for the ultimate restaurant-quality result.
