Dry Pasta: Conchiglie Rigate


onchiglie rigate is one of the most enjoyed pastas in Italy because of its shape which holds a good amount of any kind of sauce. Maritime in origin, it was developed in Central and Southern Italy, and it is known and loved worldwide thanks to its wonderful form.

Conchiglie rigate is quite versatile and can be used with excellent results in every kind of recipe, baked or not, with rich or light sauces. Its concave shape and the outer ridges capture and hold any sauce, even the most slippery one, to perfection. Still, it is best with sauces that fill up its cavities, and then explode their full range of flavors inside the mouth.

Very similar to conchiglie rigate are pipe rigate and pipette rigate, which are more common in Central and Northern Italy.
