De Cecco Acini Di Pepe No. 78 Pasta, 16 Oz, Authentic, Slow Dried, Made with Semolina and Durum Wheat, Versatile Pasta for Sauces & Recipes, Made in Italy

I love these little things. Together with collage in chicken broth made an excellent union. It’s an Italian appetizer soup. No have 2-3 times a week

It's so hard to find Acini De Pepe in grocery stores these days and I can't always get to a proper Italian Importer. Thank you so much for offering this. I sure miss the convenience of NYC where this was everywhere and I didn't have to seek it out, but am so glad Amazon is carrying this quality brand. Beautiful texture and perfect size. I've made Pastina twice already. Yummy. Thank You.

I've tried other common brands you'll find at your supermarket but they're no equal with their bland flavor and sometimes indigestibility. I have used De Cecco pasta for years and can confidently say there is a difference. When cooked as instructed on the package(s) you will have al dente perfection and a perfect rustic, nutty flavor due to the high quality flours used to make it and the slow drying method used by De Cecco.

A great addition to my soup. Tasty,soft and easy to cook.Good value for tye price

Best pasta to put in chicken soup.

Absolutely delicious in any recipe.

I was afraid pasta so tiny would cook in about 2 seconds and get instantly mushy, but not at all. It took a normal amount of time to cook and was perfectly al dente, even after the soup sat in the fridge a few days and was then reheated violently in the microwave. Find a suitable strainer before you cook it, as it will go right thru the holes in most strainers. Super fast & easy: the pasta + couple cartons of chicken stock, bag of frozen Italian meatballs (cut into quarters after cooking for smaller meatballs), bag of fresh spinach chopped up, & a few carrots, chopped into small pieces.

I was glad to come across these while looking for a quality Semolina and Durum pasta. I also bought their egg noodles. It's been years since I've had the Acini Di Pepe since you rarely see it in grocery stores. My mother would cook these for a snack with butter/cinnamon and sugar. Would have been 5 stars but the box needs to be sealed better as the corners were crushed product spilled out.
