Product Description
Tiny but mighty, these pinpoint-size beads bring texture to soups, stews, and chilled salads. Acini di Pepe—literally “pepper seeds”—start with fine-milled durum wheat. La Molisana uses bronze screens to roughen each grain just enough to absorb surrounding liquid. Ready in six minutes when boiled directly in broth, the pasta thickens the soup naturally, releasing gentle starch that ties ingredients together. For party salads, cook the grains separately, rinse, then fold with diced fruit and a light dressing; the beads pick up flavor without turning mushy. Because they are so small, stir frequently in the early minutes to keep grains from nesting at the bottom of the pot. A quarter cup dry expands to about a cup cooked, making portion planning straightforward. The resealable pouch prevents stray grains from scattering across pantry shelves—handy since these beads love to roll. When you need a shape that almost disappears yet leaves a pleasing bite, reach for Acini di Pepe.
