The Italian seashell pasta, Conchiglie, uses its curved interior to trap rich sauces, chunky ragouts, and vegetables like a hidden treasure. It’s the perfect choice for both pasta salads and baked dishes.
Conchiglie, meaning seashell in Italian, elevates pasta to an art form with its rustic, curved shape. The major advantage of Conchiglie lies in the exceptional sauce-trapping ability of its concave interior, ensuring an intense burst of flavor in every spoonful. Its surfaces, which can be smooth or ridged (rigate), embrace everything from light seafood sauces to thick cheese mixtures. This highly versatile pasta confidently takes its place in hearty baked dishes from Southern Italy as well as fresh, light Mediterranean salads. Achieve both textural richness and visual appeal in your cooking with Conchiglie.
