Capellini is a long, thin cylindrical shape often referred to as angel hair pasta. Angel hair is actually thinner than Capellini pasta. DeLallo Pasta begins with a high-quality blend of durum wheat. Wheat is chosen for its beautiful color, wonderful aroma and high protein content and is milled into coarse ground semolina flour and then carefully kneaded with cold, fresh, mineral-rich mountain spring water. Pasta is slowly extruded for a rough surface texture perfect for capturing sauces. True to tradition, we dry our pasta slowly at low temperatures to retain the pastas taste, texture and aroma. Capellini is best served with lighter sauces that will not overwhelm its delicate shape, such as an herbaceous pesto, a light tomato sauce or a simple sauce of butter or oil. Season with red pepper flakes or fresh herbs. Capellini is also a great soup cut for broth-based soups.
