What You Should Know

You might grab this 12 oz package from the pasta aisle or refrigerated case on a weeknight run or while planning a Sunday family meal — it reads like a simple staple for scratch cooking. The vibe is comforting and nostalgic, evoking homemade dinners and a slightly elevated, eggy texture compared with plain semolina spaghetti. The ingredient list (only flour and whole fresh eggs) and lack of additives point to a traditionally processed pasta with minimal industrial reformulation — expect tender, springy strands rather than an ultra-processed product with emulsifiers or artificial ingredients.
