Farfalle Santa Lucia 500g

Santa Lucia Farfalle is a short, bow-tie shaped pasta made from durum wheat semolina, produced in Italy. The name means "butterflies" in Italian — a reference to the distinctive pinched centre and flared wings that define the format and give it immediate visual appeal on the plate. The dual texture of farfalle — thicker at the centre pinch, thinner at the edges — creates a varied eating experience within each piece, with the centre holding its bite longer than the outer edges and allowing different elements of a sauce to register at different moments.

A versatile and visually distinctive short pasta for both professional kitchens and retail, Santa Lucia Farfalle suits a wide range of preparations from warm sauce-based dishes to cold pasta salads, making it one of the more broadly applicable formats across different menu contexts. Supplied by Sapori in a 24 x 500g case, it is a practical choice for restaurants, catering kitchens, and wholesale accounts across Cape Town and the Western Cape.
