The Penne Pasta recipe is a go-to Pasta recipe. Chef Julius is here to take us through the preparation method.
Penne is an extruded type of pasta with cylinder-shaped pieces, their ends cut at an angle. Penne is the plural form of the Italian penna, deriving from Latin penna, and is a cognate of the English word pen.
Penne is one of the few pasta shapes with a specific date of birth: in 1865, Giovanni Battista Capurro, a pasta maker from San Martino d’Albaro (Genoa), obtained a patent for a diagonal cutting machine.
His invention cut the fresh pasta into a pen shape without crushing it, in size varying between 3 cm (1 in) mezze penne (half pens) and 5 cm (2 in) penne.
