Catelli Classic Spaghetti

Dry long pasta in 500 g, 900 g, 2 kg and 4.2 kg packs. Durum wheat semolina is the only ingredient listed on catelli.ca. The Non-GMO Project mark is on the line.

Catelli Montreal, Inc. runs a pasta plant in Montreal, Quebec. Barilla Group, a family firm founded in Parma, Italy in 1877, owns that company and Barilla Canada. Classic pages do not name the wheat's country.

The brand site pairs it with tomato sauce and meatballs, and with other sauces. Recipe icons on the page sit between 10 and 30 minutes. Egg pasta is processed on the same equipment.
