Setaro Mezzi Paccheri is a wide, short tubular pasta made by Pastificio Setaro in Torre Annunziata, near Naples, Italy. Mezzi means "half" in Italian, and Mezzi Paccheri are a shorter version of the classic oversized Paccheri shape. Their generous hollow center and substantial bite make them excellent for capturing rich sauces and chunky ingredients.
How to Use Setaro Mezzi Paccheri
Mezzi Paccheri pairs beautifully with seafood, meat ragù, sausage, rich tomato sauces, and vegetables. The shorter tubes are easy to combine with chunky ingredients while their wide opening allows sauce, cheese, and small pieces of meat or seafood to collect inside.
