Details
Streamline the creation of a variety of signature pasta dishes with this Barilla pre-cooked frozen rigatoni pasta. Pre-cooked and then individually quick frozen, this pasta simply needs to be reheated and can be used for immediate service or hot held for up to 30 minutes. This versatile pasta cut's large diameter and ridges allow sauces to adhere to the entire surface of the noodle, making it an ideal pairing for meat-, dairy-, and tomato-based sauces and vegetables. Use it to serve Italian staples like rigatoni alla norma or rigatoni alla Genovese or to serve simple yet elegant dishes that showcase fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Try a classic sauce with ripe tomatoes and basil, or one with global ingredients, like a garlic cream sauce with Parmigiano-Reggiano. It's also great for baked dishes and casseroles like pasta al forno and timballo. No matter how it's prepared, Barilla pasta is trusted among Italian chefs and remains Italy's #1 brand of pasta for its reliability in texture and ability to complement fresh ingredients and bold flavors.
This pasta is made with the finest durum wheat semolina to deliver great taste and an "al dente" texture your customers crave, every time. Soft and fine, durum semolina is ideal for pasta as it easily forms the shape with its supple, moldable dough and holds up well during cooking and reheating. Incredibly versatile for use in any kitchen, this pasta can be reheated by defrosting the desired amount in a single layer on a tray or in pre-portioned bags in the refrigerator. Then, simply blanch it in boiling water for 1 minute and 15 seconds, drain, and combine with your favorite sauce. Or, to cook without boiling water, you can combine the defrosted pasta with sauce and cook in a microwave, saucepan, combi oven, or impingement oven. Add your preferred finishing touches, plate, and serve!
In 1877, Pietro Barilla opened a bread and pasta shop in Parma, Italy with the dream of supplying his community with the most delicious handmade bread and pasta to serve at their own family tables. Pietro and his son Riccardo worked tirelessly to make and deliver their products daily to the streets of Parma and over the years began to purchase more advanced pasta-making technology and warehouse space to keep up with the demand. After years of success and expansion due to their commitment to quality, authentic products and a passion for innovation, Barilla has since positioned itself as the world's leading industrial pasta producer. It remains an Italian family-owned company that is dedicated to high-quality, nutritious products while supporting an environmentally-sustainable production process from field to fork.
