## Overview

De Cecco Orecchiette Pasta is a premium 5-pound pack of authentic Italian pasta made from 100% durum wheat semolina. Its unique ear-shaped, slightly hollow discs are slow-kneaded with cold spring water, resulting in a rough texture that perfectly holds sauces and broths. Rich in essential nutrients like protein, iron, and B vitamins, this non-GMO, kosher pasta cooks to a firm al dente in 8-10 minutes, making it a versatile and health-conscious choice for elevating everyday meals.

## Description

Product Description De Cecco gently grinds the heart of each grain, mixes it with cold spring water, then kneads the dough slowly. This results in pasta with the exceptional De Cecco aroma, flavor, and consistency. Pasta easily cooks to perfection, has a great firm texture, and a delicious “fresh” pasta taste. It has a rougher surface, which helps the sauce stick to it. Make De Cecco pasta the secret ingredient for your most amazing dishes! Buon Appetito! Ingredients Durum WHEAT semolina, water P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); Directions Cook in boiling water for 8-10 minutes or until al dente.

Review: De Cecco Orecchiette No. 91 is one of my absolute favorites, especially for soups. The small, ear-shaped pieces are perfectly designed to cradle broth and catch vegetables or bits of meat in every bite. They don’t get lost in the soup and make each spoonful feel hearty and satisfying. What really stands out is the quality. Like other De Cecco pastas, it’s made with high-quality durum wheat semolina and holds its shape beautifully. Even after simmering in soup, the orecchiette stay pleasantly al dente instead of turning mushy. The size is just right—not too big, not too small—and it adds great texture without overpowering the other ingredients. Whether it’s a simple vegetable soup, chicken broth, or a bean-based soup, this pasta elevates the whole dish.
Review: I love this pasta! Good quality, reasonably priced. My new favorite pasta shape for just about anything! Tastes and texture what you would expect in a pasta. Cook time is about 12 minutes. Pasta holds onto sauces like a champ. Would recommend to anyone who hasn't ever had "God's Thumbnail".

My 36 year old son turned us on to this macaroni!! I had never even heard of it. He told me where he purchased it and I decided to see if Amazon offered it and VOILA there it was! He paid 5 something for one bag (his came in a bag) and I paid 8 something for 3 boxes!!! And now that I'm reviewing this cool macaroni, I think I'm going to be using it for dinner tonight! Fun shape whether you're just throwing some sauce and meatballs on it or great for soups as well!
