L'Oro di Gragnano Orecchiette Pasta

ORECCHIETTE, a traditional pasta of southern Italy, is crafted in Gragnano using premium durum wheat semolina and bronze-die methods that create a rough, sauce-loving surface. Its name means “little ears.”

About the Shape:
Shaped like tiny domed discs with a thin center and slightly thicker edges, ORECCHIETTE captures sauces in its concave shape while maintaining a pleasing chewiness. Its design allows it to hold chunky ingredients, making it especially versatile. The artisan production process enhances its rustic texture, ensuring that each piece absorbs flavors beautifully and cooks to a perfect al dente consistency.

Best Types of Dishes:
Traditionally paired with broccoli rabe and sausage, but also excellent with vegetable sauces, meat ragù, seafood, tomato-based condiments, and hearty legumes. Works well in both stovetop and baked recipes.
