Setaro Capricci is a distinctive specialty pasta made by Pastificio Setaro in Torre Annunziata, near Naples, Italy. The Italian word capricci can mean "whims" or "fancies," a fittingly playful name for this unusual pasta format. Its sculptural shape creates curves and textured surfaces that help capture sauce and ingredients.
How to Use Setaro Capricci
Capricci pairs beautifully with tomato sauces, pesto, vegetables, creamy sauces, and meat ragù. Its unusual shape catches sauces and smaller ingredients while also bringing visual interest to the plate, making it a fun alternative to everyday short pasta.
