Most commonly referred to as 'shells', Conchiglie Rigate cuddle sauces more than any other pasta due to the rigid outer and smooth, deep, cave-like interior.
They are excellent with lighter sauces and those with chunky pieces. For our family, these shells are the basis for the most awesome twist on 'Mac 'n' Cheese'; each pasta piece oozes cheese and those oh so cheeky bacon pieces seem to magically hide in the centres for an exhilarating crispy surprise.
Naturally dried pasta means these keep well without stabilisers or preservatives.  Suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
