Senatore Cappelli is a durum wheat variety, selected in 1915 by agronomist Nazareno Strampelli. This authentic Italian grain was dedicated to Marchese Raffaele Cappelli from Abruzzo, Senator of the Italian Kingdom and promoter of the 20th century Agrarian Reform.

This autumnal variety is well suited for organic farming due to its considerable height, which can reach above 1.5 meters (4 feet). This 100% Italian-grown Senatore Cappelli variety has unique and distinctive brownish-black awns with large glassy grains. After milling, the resulting semolina has a bright amber-yellow color. The pasta has a subtle sweet, malty flavor and pleasing supple texture.

ORGANIC SENATORE CAPPELLI MEZZEMANICHE – Mezzemaniche meaning “short sleeves” in Italian, is a wide, ridged tube. It’s as wide as rigatoni but half its length. A perfect soup shape. Also great for baking or for pasta salads with vegetables cut in the same size as the pasta shape.

ORGANIC SENATORE CAPPELLI LINGUINE – From lingue, meaning “tongues” in Italian, this long pasta is also known as bavette. Traditionally served with olive oil, garlic and tiny clams, this shape is used throughout Italy, mostly with fish or shellfish sauces.

ORGANIC SENATORE CAPPELLI ORECCHIETTE – Orecchiette meaning “little ears,” is the most famous pasta from Puglia. Done by pressing the dough with the thumb, this pasta is also known as Orecchie di Prete in Abruzzo, meaning “the ears of the priest.”

Traditionally served alla Pugliese (with broccoli rabe, sausage, and garlic) or with a hearty meat ragù so that the sauce is cupped in the pasta.

ORGANIC SENATORE CAPPELLI PENNE RIGATE – One of Italy’s most popular cuts, penne rigate has a wider tube than the original penne (“quills”), but rigate (“with ridges”) on the outside.

We recommend you serve this Senatore Cappelli Penne Rigate with olive oil-based sauces or simple tomato sauce so you may enjoy its flavor and texture. Also ideal for sauces with ground meat or vegetables so that the sauce is trapped in the middle.

ORGANIC SENATORE CAPPELLI SPAGHETTI – From the Italian word spago meaning “string or thread,” there is no pasta in the world more famous than Spaghetti. We strongly recommend you serve this Senatore Cappelli Spaghetti with olive oil-based sauces or simple tomato sauce so you may enjoy its flavor and texture.
