*SPECIAL* (BEST BY 02/06/28) Mafalde by Gentile: Organic, 1.1 lb, 12/CS

Mafalde are named after Princess Mafalda, daughter of King Vittorio Emanuele III. The frilly edges of this shape are meant to reflect the ruffles in the Princess's petty coat. This shape is also known as reginelle (little queens). They cook up into a very substantive plate of pasta that can be served with any sauce, especially meat sauces. Made with 100% Italian wheat. *Pasta di Gragnano achieved in 2010 the IGP mark (Indicazione Geagrafica Protetta). This community recognition represents the reaching of an important objective for pasta makers, always working with respect and devotion for the entire Gragnano city where the pasta is its own icon. The EU assigns the IGP mark to agricultural food which are linked to a geographical origin basing on unique characteristics and production phases; this implies the respect of straight production rules indicated in the "disciplinari".
