Senatore Cappelli Organic Orecchiette is crafted in Italy using the heritage Senatore Cappelli variety of durum wheat, known for its subtly sweet, malty flavor and pleasing supple texture. Each piece is shaped into the signature “little ear,” a design that naturally scoops and holds sauces, vegetables, and hearty ingredients.

This organic pasta is celebrated for its firm bite and rustic character. The shape pairs beautifully with classic Southern Italian recipes, especially dishes featuring tomatoes, leafy greens, savory sausage, and simple olive-oil-based sauces made with Queen Creek Olive Mill Extra Virgin Olive Oils.
Its sturdy structure also makes it ideal for vegetable ragùs, creamy creations, and rustic weeknight meals.

Senatore Cappelli Orecchiette brings depth, tradition, and authentic Italian craftsmanship to your table, honoring a historic grain with every serving.
