Restaurant-Quality Pasta Made Everyday – Easy

Crafted for home cooks who love wholesome, flavourful meals, Del Monte FoodCraft Penne Rigate brings high-quality pasta straight to your daily table. Made from 100% durum wheat semolina (suji), this classic tube-shaped pasta features crisp exterior ridges (rigate) cut at dynamic angles, designed to hold onto sauces inside and out. Nutritious, non-sticky, and easy to prepare, it’s the ideal canvas for your everyday culinary creations.

Key Benefits

• 100% Durum Wheat Semolina: Made purely from high-grade Suji with zero maida, providing a light, healthy source of complex carbohydrates.

• Superior Sauce Coating: The combination of an exterior ridged surface, hollow centre, and angled cut traps chunky tomato sauces, rich pestos, and melted cheese for maximum flavour in every bite.

• Perfect Al Dente Bite: Expertly processed to stay firm, springy, and non-sticky without getting soft or mushy during cooking.

• High Protein & Dietary Fibre: Packed with natural wheat nutrients to keep you feeling satisfied and energised for longer.

• Zero Cholesterol & Low Fat: A guilt-free, heart-healthy option for quick lunchboxes, weeknight family dinners, or weekend meal prep.

Easy Cooking Instructions (8–10 Minutes)

1. Boil Water: Bring 1 litre of water per 100 g of pasta to a rolling boil in a deep pot. Add a pinch of salt.

2. Add Pasta: Toss in Del Monte FoodCraft Penne Rigate and cook uncovered for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

3. Check Doneness: Test for an al dente feel—tender on the outside with a firm bite in the middle.

4. Drain & Pair: Drain the excess water thoroughly and toss directly into your favourite simmering sauce or salad bowl!

Chef’s Tip: Save 2 tablespoons of the starchy pasta water before draining and stir it directly into your sauce—it binds the sauce together and creates a silky, glossy coating that sticks to every ridge.
