Rustichella d'Abruzzo Orzo Pasta 17.6 oz

Orzo is a small pasta shape resembling barley grains or rice. Its compact size makes it especially versatile for soups, broths and vegetable dishes, but it also works beautifully in cold pasta salads.

Rustichella d’Abruzzo produces its pasta using selected durum wheat semolina, bronze dies and slow drying at low temperatures. These traditional techniques give the pasta a rough, porous surface and help preserve the flavor and texture of the wheat.

How to Use Orzo Pasta

Use Orzo in chicken broth, vegetable soup, minestrone or legume soups, or prepare it as a cold Mediterranean pasta salad.

For an easy summer dish, toss cooked Orzo with cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, basil and extra virgin olive oil.

It also works well in grain-style bowls with roasted vegetables, herbs and cheese.
