Calamaro Afeltra - Premium  Pasta

Discover the exceptional quality of Calamaro Afeltra, a premium wheat semolina pasta crafted in the traditional pasta-making town of Gragnano. This unique pasta shape combines authentic Italian craftsmanship with the finest durum wheat semolina.

What Makes Calamaro Special:

  • Authentic Gragnano Craftsmanship: Made in the birthplace of Italian pasta using time-honored techniques
  • Premium Durum Wheat Semolina: High-quality semolina creates the perfect texture and flavor
  • Bronze Die Extrusion: Traditional bronze dies create a rough surface that holds sauces beautifully
  • Slow Drying Process: Patient drying preserves the wheat's natural flavor and nutrients

Pasta Shape & Cooking:

Calamaro's unique tubular shape with delicate curves is perfect for capturing and holding sauces. The name 'Calamaro' (squid) reflects its distinctive appearance that resembles squid rings.

Perfect Pairings:

  • Tomato-Based Sauces: Classic marinara, arrabbiata, or puttanesca
  • Seafood Dishes: Pairs beautifully with calamari, shrimp, or mixed seafood
  • Garlic & Oil: Simple aglio e olio with fresh herbs
  • Cheese Sauces: Creamy carbonara or cacio e pepe variations

Cooking Instructions:

Cook in abundant salted boiling water for 10-12 minutes until al dente. The pasta will maintain its shape and texture perfectly.
