Tomato and basil for the ridges
The diagonal ends belong to the penne family; the ridges identify this version. De Cecco recommends arrabbiata, meat sauces and baked preparations, along with tomato, basil, olive oil and Parmigiano. Try the tomato and basil direction when you want a simple accompaniment to the ridged shape.
