Rigatoni
Rigatoni, inspired by “riga” (ridges), is one of Italy’s most beloved shapes. Born in Rome, this classic pasta was the muse for the famous Italian director, Federico Fellini, who created television commercials in Italy for Barilla in 1985.

The large diameter and ridges of Rigatoni make it ideal for retaining sauces on the entire surface, inside and out! Try Rigatoni with chunkier meat or vegetable-based sauces, refined dairy-based sauces, like a mushroom cream sauce, tomato sauces, or spicy sauces. Rigatoni is also delicious in baked casserole dishes, known as “pasta al forno".
