Masciarelli Pasta - Bucatini (Italy, 500g)

Masciarelli Bucatini — Pastificio Masciarelli, Pratola Peligna, Abruzzo, Italy

In the mountain town of Pratola Peligna in the heart of Abruzzo, Pastificio Masciarelli has been making pasta the same way since 1867 — slowly, carefully, and with an obsessive commitment to quality that only a 150-year-old family tradition can sustain. Their Bucatini is the definitive expression of this craft: a long, hollow bronze-cut pasta that captures sauce both inside and out, delivering incredible flavour in every single bite. Made from 100% Italian durum wheat semolina and pure mountain spring water, each batch is slow-dried for up to three days — a process that creates the rustic, flour-dusted texture and firm bite that separates artisan pasta from everything else on the shelf. This is pasta with genuine Italian character and a story to match.

Bucatini is the pasta of Rome’s great classics — and Masciarelli’s version is built to handle them all. The hollow centre fills with sauce on every twirl, while the bronze-cut exterior grips and holds whatever you throw at it. The texture is firm, satisfying, and deeply pleasurable — the kind of pasta that makes you understand why Italians take this so seriously.
