Barilla Maccheroni n°44 pasta

Barilla is one of the world's most iconic pasta brands, originating in Parma, Italy, in 1877. Founded by Pietro Barilla as a small bread and pasta shop, the company has grown into a global leader in the food industry. Today, Barilla remains a family-owned business, overseen by the fourth generation of the Barilla family.

While the brand is deeply rooted in Italian tradition and many of its products are still manufactured in Italy using high-quality durum wheat, Barilla operates a vast network of production facilities across the globe, including sites in the United States, Greece, and Turkey, to meet international demand. The Maccheroni n°44 featured in the image is a classic example of their durum wheat semolina range, known for its consistent quality and 'al dente' texture.
