Gourmet Italian-Style Dining, Made Simple & Wholesome

Bring home an authentic Italian culinary experience with Chef’s Basket Durum Wheat Semolina Penne Pasta. Crafted from 100% premium durum wheat semolina (suji), these classic tube-shaped penne pieces feature subtle exterior ridges designed to cling onto your favourite rich sauces. Non-sticky, springy, and full of natural goodness, it’s the perfect choice for home chefs looking to whip up restaurant-quality meals effortlessly.

Key Benefits

• 100% Premium Durum Wheat: Made without maida, providing complex carbohydrates that deliver slow-releasing, sustained energy to keep you full for longer.

• Fortified Micronutrients: Enriched with essential vitamins and minerals—including iron, folic acid, and vitamin B12—for extra everyday health benefits.

• Ideal Sauce Retention: The classic ridged penne design (Penne Rigate) traps creamy, tomato, or pesto sauces inside and out, ensuring maximum flavour in every bite.

• Perfect Al Dente Finish: Holds its firm, springy structure through cooking without becoming soft, mushy, or sticky.

• Naturally Nutritious: A great source of dietary protein and fibre with no added preservatives, artificial colours, or artificial flavours.

Easy Cooking Instructions

1. Boil: In a large pot, bring 1 litre of water per 100 g of pasta to a rolling boil. Add a pinch of salt.

2. Cook: Add Chef’s Basket Penne Pasta and let it cook uncovered for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally until it achieves an al dente (tender yet firm) bite.

3. Drain & Pair: Drain the excess water thoroughly. Toss immediately with your choice of sauce, sautéed vegetables, or light seasonings.

Chef’s Tip: Save 2–3 tablespoons of the hot, starchy pasta water before draining! Stir it directly into your simmering red or white sauce to create an ultra-smooth, glossy coating that sticks perfectly to the penne.
