Paccheri n.125 (12 x 500 g) De Cecco

Description:
"Paccheri n° 125 De Cecco" 
Paccheri are typical of Campania. Their name derives from 'paccarià', which in Neapolitan dialect means 'slap': probably the popular tradition was intended to recall the thick and heavy texture. They are also widespread, under different names, in other regions. They are recommended for the preparation of dry pasta dishes seasoned with dense, full-bodied meat sauces, such as the Neapolitan ragu, which can penetrate and flavour the pasta. Alternatively, they can be enjoyed in baked pies with cheese and tomato sauce or with rich fish sauces.

More than a hundred years ago, a story began in Abruzzo that, like every great enterprise, is made up of people and passions. It is the story of the De Cecco brothers' mill and pasta factory. For over 130 years, they have been producing pasta that is synonymous with quality and pleasure all over the world. 
This story originates from before the Unification of Italy, when in Fara San Martino, a small village at the foot of the Majelle, Don Nicola De Cecco produced 'the best flour in the area' in his stone mill. 

As had been the case for generations, 'Uncle Nicola' passed on his art and passion to his son Filippo Giovanni, who began a new chapter in the history of the De Cecco family by dedicating himself to the production of pasta: thus the De Cecco brothers' mill and pasta factory were born. In 1886. 

Until then, pasta was always dried in the sun, the only way to guarantee the high quality and durability of the product. Thanks to this wise intuition, new markets opened up for De Cecco and the internationalisation of the company began. 
In 1908, the Abruzzese peasant woman with the sheaves of wheat became the company's symbol. After the Second World War, the growth phase began with which De Cecco reached its current expansion: the factory, destroyed by German bombing, was rebuilt and production restarted, increasingly oriented towards the international market.
