From the producer:
Rustichellla d’Abruzzo pasta is made with the finest quality grains blended with pure mountain spring water, extruded through bronze dies and slowly air-dried, creating its signature rough texture that holds sauce beautifully.
These wide, classic noodles show off the pasta's silky texture. Traditionally used with slowly cooked, chunky sauces.

COOKBOOK PAIRINGS
We can thank Rolando Beramendi for bringing fregola sarda to the United States; he shares the story in the headnote for Cold Fregola Sarda Salad (p. 202). He shares a tip for cooks, "My only suggestion: Do as they do in Sardinia, and keep it simple."
“A cool substitute for Israeli couscous is fregola, a Sardinian version that’s toasted and full of flavor with a more rustic texture.” Try it in Fennel Two Ways with Mussels and Couscous (p. 158) or as a side with Braised Eggplant with Lamb with Yogurt and Spiced Green Sauce (p. 240).
