Pairing Suggestions

Garofalo Spaghetti No. 9 is the ultimate versatile pasta — its bronze-drawn rough surface grips every sauce beautifully. Classic pairings include Spaghetti al Pomodoro (simple tomato and basil), Spaghetti Aglio e Olio (garlic, olive oil, and chili), Spaghetti Carbonara (eggs, guanciale, Pecorino), Spaghetti Bolognese (slow-cooked meat ragù), Spaghetti alle Vongole (clams, white wine, parsley), and Spaghetti Cacio e Pepe (Pecorino and black pepper). A pasta worthy of any recipe.

Cooking Instructions

Add the pasta and a generous pinch of salt to a large pot of boiling water. Cook until al dente — good quality Italian pasta takes longer to cook than mass-produced pasta, but the unique flavour and firm texture are well worth it. Reserve a cup of pasta water before draining to help emulsify your sauce.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is La Pasta di Gragnano?

Gragnano is a town near Naples, Italy, famous for pasta production for over 200 years. Garofalo has been crafting pasta there since 1789. The combination of fresh spring water, sunny weather, and sea breeze from the nearby Bay of Naples creates the perfect conditions for exceptional pasta.
