The Abruzzo region of Italy, home to Rustichella d’Abruzzo artisanal pasta factory.
Italy on the world map.
Guitar pasta (Chitarra Pasta) is so named because the traditional method to cut it was a box with metal guitar strings to produce the straight-sided strands and desired thickness. Chitarra pasta is a typical Abruzzeze dish served with a tomato and basil sauce with fresh ricotta cheese, ‘pesto alla Genovese,’ or a simple meat-based sauce.
Centuries of expertise and love of the very best quality make Rustichella d’Abruzzo pasta, olive oils, and pantry items from the Abruzzo region of Italy the favorite of the world’s top chefs. Rustichella d’Abruzzo has been served at the White House and was a favorite of Luciano Pavarotti, among others.
Rustichella d’Abruzzo is synonymous with quality and excellence. At this family-run artisanal pastificio in Abruzzo, they always craft their pasta using top-quality flours and pure spring water from the Apennine Mountains. The various pastas are extruded through hand-carved bronze dies for a rustic texture that holds sauce beautifully, then air-dried for up to 56 hours to further develop the flavor. The olive oils and pantry items are crafted with the traditional artisanal methods from centuries past. Rustichella d’Abruzzo is part of the cultural and historic heritage of Italy.
