Gobetti

About Gobetti

That elbow pasta you use to satisfy the cries for mac & cheese is of the gobetti variety. Gobetti actually means “nice hunchbacked man.” It’s most popular for its use with cheese sauces, making it especially popular with children. It’s a worldwide hit, but no more so than in its Italian home of Veneto. Consider a few Italian favorites: “gobetti con salsiccia e scamorza” (with sausage and scamorza cheese); “gobetti allo zafferano con funghi e Parmigiano” (with saffron, boletus mushrooms and Parmesan); and “gobetti con panna e speck” (with cream and speck sliced salami). Or try an adult mac and cheese dish with Gobetti with Gorgonzola Sauce.
