Proceed to purchase: paccheri 100% wheat from Sicily Did you know that the term 'pacchero' (from πας, 'all' and χειρ, 'hand') derives from the ancient Greek of the first founders of Parthènope and is a term still used in the Italian language, such as 'pacca', i.e. slap given with an open hand, without hostile intentions. Hence the derivation of its name. Paccheri are a type of pasta consisting of large, wide tubes, similar to large macaroni. But when it comes to paccheri, don't you fancy a nice fish-based pasta dish, such as seafood or pistachio and shrimp? My mouth is already watering! And you? What are you waiting for? Buy these fantastic 100% wheat paccheri from Sicily here. Ideas and recipes: Paccheri are fantastic with any kind of sauce. Their rough and coarse surface, obtained by slow drying and bronze extrusion, allows them to better hold the sauce, making them perfect for thick and rich sauces, such as meat ragù, tomato sauces or fish-based condiments. We suggest some mouth-watering recipes, which are also very simple and quick to make. These include paccheri with Torrisi's swordfish sauce or seafood sauce. My favourite version is paccheri with Torrisi's pistachio pesto and fresh shrimps. In case you are vegetarian or vegan, simply do not add the prawns and enjoy this excellent pasta simply with Torrisi's pistachio pesto, adding a pinch of orange zest. You will thus obtain a delicious first course that you will finish immediately, thanks to its goodness. Paccheri not only hold the sauce thanks to their rough surface, but also have the ability to incorporate it inside thanks to their characteristic tubular shape."
