Pastificio Fratelli Setaro Strozzapreti 500g

Pastificio Fratelli Setaro Strozzapreti 500g. Pastificio Fratelli Setaro Strozzapreti is a traditional artisan pasta from Torre Annunziata, near Naples, produced using premium 100% Italian durum wheat semolina and pure water. Made according to the historic methods that have defined the Setaro family since 1939, the pasta is bronze-die extruded and slowly air-dried at low temperatures, creating a rough, porous surface that captures sauces beautifully while maintaining a firm, satisfying bite.

The name strozzapreti translates loosely as "priest stranglers," a classic Italian pasta shape formed into elongated twists. Its gently spiralled shape is particularly well suited to hearty sauces, as the grooves and folds trap ingredients and flavour in every mouthful. Traditionally, strozzapreti pairs exceptionally well with seafood, mushrooms, rich tomato sauces, sausage ragùs, and creamy cheese-based preparations.

Setaro's artisanal production process, including bronze-die extrusion (trafila al bronzo) and slow drying, gives the pasta its distinctive texture and authentic character. The result is a premium pasta that cooks evenly, retains its structure, and delivers the rustic quality expected from one of Campania's most respected traditional pasta makers.
