Orecchiette is an ancient member of the Italian pasta family. Dating back to the 12th or 13th century: its winning traits make it a popular favorite to this day. Orecchiette translates to ‘small ears’—a fitting name for a dome-shaped pasta that looks like tiny ears. Thin with a concave center and chewy edges, this single noodle has it all.
A working relationship that dates back four generations, Felicetti works hand in hand with local farmers to achieve the best tasting grain possible. Ground within 24 hours of use, starting with premium ingredients, ensures pasta with the best flavor and texture. Known as the “perfect pasta,” Felicetti’s noodles never stick or boil over. Best of all, they retain their al dente ‘bite’ well past cook time.
