Acini di Pepe has been a key ingredient in a family soup recipe for years, and since I developed a wheat sensitivity, I haven't been able to make it properly for over a decade. I was so excited to try this pasta and it did not disappoint! It's got a great consistency and doesn't melt to sand after sitting in the soup for a while. Shipping was very fast, it arrived in great condition, and I can eat grandma's soup the way it was intended once again. Thank you!!
