Italian Orzo Pasta

Meet Your New Kitchen BFF

Favuzzi's Orzo brings small, rice-shaped pasta into everyday cooking with real bite and texture behind it. It's extruded through traditional bronze dies for a porous surface that grabs onto broth, dressing, or sauce, then slow-dried at low temperature for up to 20 hours so the center stays firm instead of turning mushy. It's made by the Minaglia brothers, third-generation pasta artisans in Montoggio, Liguria, using pure spring water and glyphosate-free Italian durum wheat semolina from one of Italy's most pollutant-free regions.

Why Do Home Cooks Love This Pasta?

• Bronze-die extrusion gives it a rough, porous surface that mass-produced, Teflon-extruded pasta can't match, so sauce clings instead of sliding to the bottom of the plate
• A slow, low-temperature drying process keeps the center firm and less prone to overcooking
• Made with just two things: pure spring water and glyphosate-free durum wheat semolina
• Small and versatile enough to swap in for rice in soups, salads, or grain bowls

How Do I Use This Pasta?

• Start checking for doneness a minute or two before package time since orzo cooks fast; rinse briefly under cool water after draining if serving it cold, to keep each piece distinct
• Stir it into soups for extra body
• Toss it cold with vegetables, lemon, and herbs for a Greek-style pasta salad
• Bake it with cheese for a comforting side
