Your whole family will love Barilla’s Gluten-Free Spaghetti and Penne! The pasta is made with corn and rice, is certified gluten free, and has the great taste and texture you can feel good about including in your favorite pasta dishes. Spaghetti is the most popular shape in Italy. The name comes from the Italian word “spaghi”, which means “lengths of cord.” Spaghetti originates from the south of Italy and is commonly used with tomato sauces, fresh vegetables or fish. Penne is one of the most famous Italian pasta shapes and greatly loved across Italy. Penne, which means “pen” in Italian, is a tube-shape with angled ends, inspired by the quill of an old-style ink pen. Ridged penne are designed for meat, vegetable, cheese and oil or butter-based sauces. They’re also perfect for baked dishes made with sauce and cheese.
