To be broken into several pieces and combined with richly flavoured condiments such as the classic Neapolitan ragù, this smooth shape of great intensity and porosity becomes the protagonist of the Sunday table! Word of a pasta maker: Why prefer shapes to be broken by hand to those cut? The hollow and double-length pasta shapes such as Candela, Ziti and Mezzani are dried vertically hung on canes. Precisely for this reason they are only open on one side, producing enzymatic processes that only occur in these conditions and therefore greatly lengthening the drying times compared to short pasta shapes, even 24-48 hours necessary to extract the humidity trapped in the long columns of pasta. Thanks to this particular drying process, the pasta acquires a completely different flavour, extraordinarily rich with notes of slightly fermented almond and hay and no sweetness. But do you really want to give up the pleasure of collecting the irregular, broken and abundantly seasoned pieces left on the bottom of the pan?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Candele Lunghe from Pastificio Di Martino are the result of high-quality artisanal production, based on a rigorous selection of the best Italian grains. This type of pasta, known for its elegance and versatility in the kitchen, lends itself to many different preparations, from the classic bean soup to more elaborate recipes, even reheated in the oven and enriched with béchamel or other sauces. Furthermore, thanks to the exclusive choice of 100% Italian grain, our pasta is free of additives and artificial preservatives, and represents a healthy and genuine choice for every type of diet. Our Candele Lunghe are available in 500g and 1kg packs, ideal for every type of need, from home consumption to professional catering. To ensure maximum freshness and full maintenance of the organoleptic properties, we recommend storing the pasta in a cool, dry place.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBronze die\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pastificio Di Martino","offers":[{"title":"1 pack","offer_id":39598827176000,"sku":"300118PS0A000","price":9.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0559\/9372\/9088\/products\/Avvolti_Candele_D_G.jpg?v=1664258604","url":"https:\/\/www.pastadimartino.mom\/en\/products\/candele-lunghe","provider":"Pastificio Di Martino","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
