To prepare this macaroni, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the pasta and stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until al dente, meaning it is tender but still has a slight bite. Drain the pasta well, reserving some of the cooking water. You can then toss it with your favorite sauce, add it to soups, or use it in baked dishes. The small tubes are excellent for holding sauces.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to other macaroni shapes, this product's small, hollow tubes are designed to capture and hold sauces effectively. The durum wheat semolina used in its production contributes to a firm texture that holds up well during cooking and in baked applications.
Who it is for

How to keep the rest
Store any unused portion in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Ensure the container is sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect the pasta's texture and shelf life. Proper storage will keep the pasta fresh for future use.
