The story

About the dish

Neapolitan cooking has a long tradition of pairing pasta with slow-cooked meat sauces, especially around the generous family table. The deep ridges and hollow center of rigatoni give a substantial sauce plenty of places to cling.

In this dish, the rib sauce brings hearty, savory depth to the pasta. It is the kind of combination that rewards an unhurried simmer and captures Campania’s affection for food meant to be shared.
