Mostaccioli

Mostaccioli, known in Italy as "Penne Lisce," are a specialty of the Campania Region in Southern Italy, which includes the cities of Naples, Capri, and Sorrento. Penne are tube-shaped with angled ends cut to resemble a quill or pen point. Unlike Penne, which are ridged, Mostaccioli are smooth in texture. Barilla^® Mostaccioli is made with non-GMO ingredients.
