Spaccatella originally comes from Sicily and is part of the whimsical, dried pasta family.
The distinctive curved shape, with a hollowed split in the centre makes this pasta especially versatile, but also original. It is perfect for traditional, dense sauces.
Spaccatella is excellent for preparing pasta dishes served with light sauces made from tomatoes, but also goes really well with meat ragù.
Unbeatable with Sicilian pesto made from ricotta and dried tomatoes.

Paccheri are a typical pasta from the Campania region. The name comes from "paccarià" which in Neapolitan dialect means "slap". Probably in popular tradition it was a reference to the large, heavy consistency. This pasta is popular in other regions as well, albeit with different names.
It is recommended for preparing pasta dishes served with dense, hearty meat ragùs such as Neapolitan ragù which works its way inside the pasta and fills it with flavour.
Alternatively, it can be enjoyed in oven-baked dishes with cheese and tomato sauce or rich fish sauces.
