With a touch of sweetness, herbal hints, sunkissed grain, and ascents of cinnamon, Bona Furtuna Penne provides a great al dente texture and elastic structure. Representative to what humans have been eating for thousands of years and easy for digestion, feel the nutritional benefits of ancient grain pasta in every bite. One of the common and versatile forms of pasta, Penne pairs well with a variety of tomato-based and cream-based sauces. Like a true Sicilian, try “Penne alla Norma” and experience the nutritional benefits of aubergine.
Bona Furtuna Ancient Grain Pasta celebrates the spirit of Italian land and tradition. Sicily’s rich climate presents ideal growing conditions for many crops, including 100% organic, non-GMO grain. Perciasacchi and Russello are sublime heirloom wheat grains that grow tall, develop strong elasticity and create an authentic al dente texture in each noodle. Using modern practices, grain is ground domestically, rinsed minimally and repeatedly milled. Next, our Italian artisan heirloom pasta is shaped in bronze dies, cut by hand, and placed on racks to air dry in the Mediterranean breeze.
Created in the eastern Sicilian city of Catania, Pasta alla Norma is quintessential Sicilian cuisine. While the recipe may vary depending on the household, the core ingredients of this classic remain the same: eggplant, basil, tomatoes and a wonderfully salty ricotta salata.
Our organic spicy Arrabbiata sauce, using air-dried Calabrian chili peppers and Sicilian Corleonese tomatoes, is an easy way to add some heat to any dish. Give this spicy deconstructed eggplant parmesan a try! It's a house favorite and is guaranteed to impress!
Extra virgin olive oil is a central part of the Mediterranean diet and one of the healthiest oils in the world. Read our post to find out more about the benefits of olive oil and why you should add more olive oil to your diet.

Thank you for the kind words, Patricia. Penne has to be one of the most versatile style of pasta and can be paired with some many delicious flavors. Summer salads with our ancient grain penne and EVOO is a lovely combination.

Grazie mille Alisha! We're so happy to be a part of your family meal time. We hear that a lot about our pastas- the lack of bloat is due to the ancient grains used in our pastas, they're much more easily digested than the heavily modified wheats used in most conventional pastas. Buon appetito!
