This sophisticated yet simple recipe combines Al Bronzo Fusilloni with butter and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese to create a creamy white pasta sauce. Sichuan or Szechuan peppercorns can be found in local Chinese grocery stores and have a warm floral lemon flavor profile. If you are not able to locate this special ingredient, you can substitute equal parts black peppercorns and coriander seeds. This ingredient adds lovely depth to the pasta sauce and pairs perfectly with Fusilloni’s coil-like shape.
Barilla Al Bronzo pasta is made by extruding dough through a bronze die that is micro engraved. This gives the pasta a rougher texture, allowing pasta sauces to perfectly cling to our beautifully crafted pasta.
