When it comes to pasta that combines simplicity, texture, and flavor, cavatelli is a true standout. With its small, pillowy shape and ability to hold onto a variety of sauces, cavatelli brings the charm of Southern Italian cooking to any table.

What is Cavatelli?

Cavatelli are small, ridged pasta pieces that are typically handmade, often with the help of your fingers or a special tool to form their signature shape. The name “cavatelli” comes from the Italian word “cavare,” which means “to hollow out,” referring to the slight indentation on the inside of each piece. This unique shape makes them perfect for capturing sauce and creating a satisfying bite.

Originating from regions like Puglia and Campania, cavatelli are made with simple ingredients—usually just flour, water, and sometimes semolina—allowing their texture to shine in every dish.

Why Choose Cavatelli?

Cavatelli’s chewy, pillowy texture makes it perfect for pairing with thicker sauces and robust ingredients. The small grooves on each piece help the pasta absorb the sauce, making every bite an explosion of flavor. Whether you prefer meaty, creamy, or vegetable-based sauces, cavatelli can handle it all with ease.
