Artisan Sicilian-style pasta with serious bite — made for bold sauces.
Astorino Busiate is premium, bronze-drawn pasta crafted by the small Astorino family workshop in Crotone, Calabria. Made from 100% Italian durum wheat semolina, it’s shaped using traditional bronze dies to create a naturally rough surface — perfect for capturing every drop of sauce.
Originally from Sicily, Busiata is traditionally formed using a ferretto (a thin metal rod), giving it its distinctive twisted shape. It’s a pasta made for rich, full-bodied recipes — especially slow-cooked meat ragùs, where the sauce clings beautifully to every spiral.
Slow dried for over 36 hours, it cooks to a firm, satisfying al dente texture that feels truly restaurant-quality at home.
If you love pasta with real character, this is one to keep stocked in your pantry.
