Our verdict

A 16 ounce Italian durum wheat spaghetti slow-dried at low temperature, distinct from the fast high-heat drying used by most mass-market pasta brands.

Overview

De Cecco's No. 12 spaghetti, a 16-ounce durum wheat pasta made in Italy using the brand's slow, low-temperature drying process rather than the fast high-heat drying common in mass-market pasta.

One recurring complaint has nothing to do with the pasta itself, it is how Amazon ships it.

  • 16oz durum wheat spaghetti, No. 12 cut
  • Slow-dried at low temperature, bronze-drawn texture
  • Made in Italy, De Cecco brand since 1886

Who it's for

Suits anyone who wants a step up from supermarket spaghetti for sauced dishes, especially thicker or oil-based sauces that need something to grip onto. Less relevant if pasta shape barely matters to the dish, like a soup, where the texture upgrade goes unused.
