Pasta

We stock a great selection of bronze die cut Italian pastas, organic pasta, gluten free pasta, organic whole wheat pasta. Our supplier, Pastai Gragnanese produces pasta which not only tastes better and retains all of its goodness when cooked, but better absorbs the sauce with which it is served. Whether you need Farfalle (butterflies), Orrechiette (little ears), Penne, Rigatoni, Linguine, lasagne sheets, Cannelloni, or simple spaghetti for your pasta recipes we have the Italian pasta shape that goes best with your chosen sauce! Our pasta also makes fabulous firm pasta salad which retains its bite.

We also import a great selection of hand made regional pasta shapes from Calabria including Strozzapreti, Cavatelli, Trofie (excellent for pesto pasta), Chilli pasta, artichoke leaf pasta, Lagane, Pappardelle, Lumaconi (big enough to stuff with your favourite filling and bake in the oven) and many more.

Our pasta kits are great for beginners as they include all of the ingredients you need to make a complete, traditional pasta dish such as 'Pasta all'Arrabiata", Pasta with Porcini Mushrooms or Pasta with Turnip Green Pesto. Their attractive packaging also makes them a lovely little gift.

Be sure to take a look at our Pasta Sauces section too and check out some brilliant ready-made sauces to accompany your favourite pasta shapes. Unlike the pasta sauces you find in your supermarket, they are not packed with sugar, salt and additives but taste amazing thanks to their wonderful, natural ingredients.

Check out our handy dried mixes to help you create an easy, simple pasta sauce by just adding a little olive oil and maybe some delicious canned San Marzano tomatoes. You'll find a range of different flavours including one for the famous 'Aglio, olio e peperoncino' (garlic, oil and chilli); this cute little pack also contains a sweet wooden spoon and makes a lovely gift.

If you have a little more time and enjoy creating your own home made pasta sauce, make sure you take a look at the Vorrei Blog for some pasta sauce recipe inspiration - you'll find a range of healthy and tasty ideas. You can find all of the ingredients you will need in the San Marzano Tomatoes and Store Cupboard sections of our website including dried Mediterranean herbs such as Oregano, Marjoram and Rosemary, Sun dried tomatoes, dried Porcini mushrooms, Capers from Salina Island and Anchovies in oil from Cetara.
