La Molisana - Gemelli - N.80
Elevate your everyday pasta dishes with the elegant structure of La Molisana Gemelli No. 80. Meaning "twins" in Italian, this beautiful shape features what looks like two intertwined strands, but is actually a single ribbon of dough masterfully twisted into a tight double helix. Made from 100% premium stone-dehulled Italian durum wheat and pure mountain spring water, it boasts a high 14% to 14.5% protein content that ensures excellent elasticity and an impeccable al dente hold. Extruded through traditional bronze dies, its rough and porous surface acts like a magnet to trap, hold, and absorb fresh basil pesto, rich cream blends, and tomato sauces flawlessly.
