Mafaldine Pasta

Mafaldine pasta, with its distinctive ruffled edges, originates from Naples, Italy. Named after Princess Mafalda of Savoy, the pasta's frilled design gives it an elegant, regal appearance. This pasta's unique shape not only adds an aesthetic touch to dishes but also effectively holds onto sauces, making it an excellent choice for hearty meat or vegetable dishes. Because of its thicker nature, cooking mafaldine takes a bit longer than common thin noodles, but the result is well worth the wait. Its resistant, yet delicate, texture plays a delightful contrast to a creamy Alfredo or thick marinara creating a visually appealing, as well as taste bud thrilling gastronomic experience.
