Pasta & Sauces

There are so many reasons to love Genoa but in matters of sauce their Pesto Genovese personifies the genius of the Italian kitchen: delicious, fresh, elegant and with great simplicity. This sauce is made using certified-D.O.P.*basil from Liguria where pesto was invented! Unbelievably fresh tasting.

IT IS NOT RECOMMEND TO PRE-HEAT THIS SAUCE.  It is already fully cooked. The concentrated yet delicate taste will be altered in pre-heating. It is at its very best when poured directly from the jar-- unheated-- on hot, steaming, strained pasta. Yet, it can also be an ideal bruschetta topping or meat-relish. If you feel you must preheat, a ban marie pan is the safest option. Each jar is sufficient for one pound of pasta. In the Italian style, the pasta is coated in sauce, and not drowning in it.

You can improvise an add fresh sautéed vegetables or sautéed meat—but we recommend to first try it alone!

“Arrabiata” literally means “angry”. In Italian whimsy this tomato based sauce actually translates into a hot chili-accented tomato sauce. A wonderful reminder of how a hot taste element can accent flavor– and all done with restraint and balance.

"Penne Rigate" is Italian for “striped pens”.  As with all our pasta, it is imported from the Abruzzo region of Italy. Penne Rigate pasta is created from All-Durham wheat and fashioned on brass dies (this gives it a “rougher” surface-texture for better sauce adhesion).

Penne Rigate, perhaps more than any other type of pasta, was a weekly staple for our family.   Our mother would settle for “smooth” penne only if our uncle Emil was out of "Rigate"
at our store.  Its shape is the perfect vehicle for nearly every pasta sauce: scooping and holding sauce inside in its tube-center and on its ribbed-surface.

"Farfalle" translates into English as “butterflies” and this was, for our family, a “special-occasion” cut of pasta. Our farfalle is made in Italy from All-Durham wheat, and formed on brass dies (which provides a rougher surface-texture for better sauce adhesion).

During the Lenten season, meatless Friday dinners often found this unique pasta floating in a light marinara tomato sauce with green peas. After each of us was served, the tin-plated cheese-grater was passed to each of us in turn. We would crank the handle for ourselves and watch as short strands of curly Pecorino Romano floated down on our plate.

This beautiful pasta shape was also one of our mother’s favorite for cold vegetables pasta dishes in summertime. We hope that DiCamillo pasta helps you to make your own family pasta memories, too!

     "Orchetti" literally means “little ears”.  Our Orchetti is made in and imported from the Abruzzi region in Central Italy an is made from All-Durham wheat and formed on brass dies (which creates a rougher surface texture for better sauce adhesion).

     These little “pasta-ears” fill up with sauce in the most delightful way, scooping the sauce for you!
       Orchetti made a later entry into our pasta memories but this rough-cut has found its way into our hearts  forever.
