Italian Gift & Gourmet Bundle "Rialto"
Indulge in an authentic Italian dining experience with this hand-selected gourmet set. Follow these simple steps to create a luxurious meal at home, just like in the finest Italian trattorias.
Step 1: Cook the Artisan Paccheri Pasta
- Boil Water – Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil (use about 1 tablespoon of salt per 4 quarts of water for the perfect balance).
- Add the Paccheri Pasta – Gently place the bronze-drawn Paccheri into the boiling water. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Cook Al Dente – Follow the recommended cooking time on the package, but taste a piece a minute before to ensure it’s firm to the bite (al dente).
- Drain & Save Some Pasta Water – Reserve a cup of pasta water before draining to help blend the sauce later.
Step 2: Warm the Traditional Bolognese Sauce
- Heat Slowly – Pour the rich, traditional Bolognese sauce into a pan over low-medium heat. Stir occasionally to bring out the depth of flavors.
- Adjust the Texture – If needed, add a bit of the reserved pasta water to help the sauce coat the pasta beautifully.
Step 3: Combine & Serve
- Toss Pasta with Sauce – Add the drained Paccheri to the pan with the Bolognese sauce. Toss gently to coat each piece evenly.
- Grate the Parmigiano Reggiano – Using a fine grater, generously sprinkle the over 40-month aged Parmigiano Reggiano on top. The nutty, complex flavors will melt perfectly into the dish.
- Drizzle with Caravella Extra Virgin Olive Oil – Finish with a touch of cold-pressed EVOO for added richness and aroma.
Step 4: Enjoy Like an Italian
- Pair with Wine – A robust Chianti, Barolo, or Sangiovese complements this gourmet meal perfectly.
- Accompany with Fresh Bread – Enjoy a warm, crusty baguette to scoop up every last bit of the sauce.
- Savor Every Bite – Take your time to enjoy the exquisite flavors of handcrafted pasta, premium cheese, and a time-honored sauce.
