Colavita Pepe

Pepe

Pepe is a special and a uniquely-shaped pasta which resembles tiny round beads. Its name is an Italian equivalent for “peppercorns”, as its form suggests. Occasionally this pasta is referred to as pastina which technically means “tiny dough”. Some say, though, the latter is somehow smaller than pepe. It is usually used in pasta soups and cold salads since it has an obviously light and delicate texture and flavor. A famous recipe in America which they call Frog’s eye salad features this type of pasta in whipped toppings, marshmallows, mandarin oranges, and pineapple. Product of Italy.
