Conchigliette

Conchigliette – Little Shells, Big Possibilities

Our award-winning Conchigliette is the queen of versatility, equally at home in brothy soups, vibrant salads, or scooping up sauces with ease. These tiny shell-shaped gems are pasta perfection in miniature, delivering joyful texture in every bite.

Made using traditional Italian methods and our signature blend of British-grown spelt, this pasta is lovingly crafted to be unbeatably delicious.

At our Pasta HQ in Cumbria, we use bronze-die with shape for a beautiful texture, then slow-dry at low temperatures to preserve the nutty richness of our high-quality ingredients. Thoughtfully made from field to fork, this is Northern Pasta at its finest.

Northern Pasta Conchigliette

Their small size also makes them perfect for use in soups, such as minestrone or chicken noodle. Unlike larger pasta shapes, conchigliette cook quickly, making them a convenient choice for meals that need to come together in a hurry. Their texture holds up well in broths, maintaining their delightful firmness even after simmering—a testament to their versatility. We love them.

FAQs

Is Your Pasta Gluten-Free?

Our pasta is not gluten free and is therefore not suitable for coaliacs. We use Spelt to make our pasta, which contains less gluten. This gluten is also more soluble meaning it is much easier to digest. Our pasta is also slow-dried which makes it much easier to digest too. We have a lot of customers who struggle with gluten, enjoy our pasta. You will notice it is much lighter and nurtures your gut.

What is Spelt?

Spelt is an Ancient Grain, believed to have been cultivated since 5000BC. And this is good, because unlike a lot of our modern wheats it has not been genetically modified.
It does contain some gluten, but the gluten has not been altered, it is natural, therefore more soluble. It is the unnatural, large quantities of gluten in modern flours that our bodies often react to. Spelt has a gorgeous, nutty flavour.
All our Spelt is grown in Britain and we source it from British Millers.

What's the best way to cook Northern Pasta?

Fill a large saucepan with lots of water & bring to the boil. Add a large pinch of salt (we want salty-seawater) & then add your pasta following the timings on the bag. Taste your pasta before the time is up for the best al dente bite. Drain in a colander. be sure to keep some cooking water. Toss in your delicious sauce adding the cooking water as needed to coat your pasta perfectly.
