Sedani Rigati is a unique, slightly curved, and ridged pasta shape that bridges the gap between classic Penne and Maccheroni. Its name translates to “small celery stalks,” inspired by its resemblance to the vegetable’s slender form. What sets it apart is the elegant mouthfeel provided by its slim cylindrical structure. The sharp external ridges (rigati) ensure that the sauce clings to the surface rather than sliding off, delivering a rich aroma in every single bite. Frequently favored in Neapolitan cuisine, this shape holds its form perfectly in baked dishes and pairs magnificently with fresh cream or mushroom-based sauces. It is a favorite for those seeking aesthetic flavor, whether in professional chef presentations or cozy home-cooked meals.
