Farfalle, originally from Lombardy and Emilia Romagna, take their name from their distinctive bow tie shape with a tight frill in the centre. The condiments recommended for Farfalle are light sauces: sauces made from butter with peas and ham; white sauces with delicate flavours made from salmon and cream; sauces made from mild, soft cheeses with a dash of saffron or curry. This pasta is also great for preparing delicious, colourful, imaginative pasta salads.
DeCecco has been committed to creating quality pasta without compromise since 1886, using the same traditional processing methods that were established 130 years ago. Pasta is created using coarse-grain semolina, cold mountain water, bronze drawn plates, and a traditional slow drying process to ensure a superior quality pasta.
