Choosing De Cecco's Coquillettes means opting for impeccable cooking performance and a texture that instantly enhances your dishes, whether simple or elaborate. High-Precision Manufacturing De Cecco applies its rigorous quality standards to this typically French pasta shape: ► Bronze-drawn: Unlike conventional industrial pasta, this pasta has a rough, porous surface that perfectly holds sauces, whipped butter or truffle creams. ► Slow drying at low temperature: This process preserves the organoleptic properties of the durum wheat and ensures a firm texture at the centre (al dente), essential for restaurant service. ► Control of Serving Time: With a quick cooking time of 6 minutes, this shape allows for optimal responsiveness during busy periods, whilst guaranteeing perfect consistency on the plate. Applications and Culinary Performance The versatility of the No. 168 Coquillettes selected by Le Delas makes them a strategic asset for your recipes: ► The Gastronomic Coquilletto: Prepared like a risotto with chicken stock and thickened with Parmesan, they offer exceptional creaminess and shine, ideal for accompanying a cut of veal or black truffle. ► Signature Dishes and Gratin: Their small size and curved shape lock in the flavours. They retain their shape perfectly even after being placed under a salamander for luxurious gratins with bone-in ham. ► Efficiency in Catering and Food Service: Packaged in 500g packs, they ensure precise portion control and consistent freshness of the durum wheat semolina with every opening.

The simple pleasure of authentic Italian pasta, guaranteed by a process that has been respected for 120 years.

The production principles of De Cecco pasta have been the same for 120 years. The wheats are selected for their pale yellow color and only the heart of durum wheat, ie the noble part of the grain, is used to obtain the semolina. Kneading with mountain water at a temperature of 10 ° C results in dough with perfect cooking capacity. The pastes are then drawn through bronze dies which gives them their unique porosity. They are then dried slowly at low temperature. Synonymous with Italian pleasure, De Cecco pasta is a sure bet when it comes to pasta.
