Ships Canada-wide from the ChickenPieces.com Calgary warehouse.

This Barilla Penne Rigate is a versatile foundation for any food service operation with a culinary program. While the pasta itself isn't a direct bar ingredient, it plays a supporting role for establishments that feature both food and drink. For a bar manager overseeing the entire F&B program, knowing the kitchen is stocked with reliable bulk ingredients like this means you can focus on optimising cocktail menus and bar supplies, confident the kitchen can keep up. It's the kind of workhorse product that keeps your operation running smoothly, whether it's for staff meals, a full pub menu, or large event catering where bartenders are also on staff.

Quality & Specifications

This Barilla Penne Rigate is made from high-quality durum wheat semolina, so you get a consistent firm al dente bite every time. The #72 designation refers to its specific cut and size, with ridges that capture and hold a variety of sauces. Each 10lb bag is a substantial quantity for large-batch cooking, with 2 bags per case, and 50 cases per pallet for high-volume operators.

Bar & Cocktail Applications

Barilla Penne Rigate #72 won't go into your shakers, but it's a foundational ingredient that supports your bar's broader food program. Think about late-night menu items that keep patrons ordering drinks longer, like a classic Penne all'Arrabbiata or a hearty baked pasta for a bustling pub crowd. It's also ideal for efficient staff meals, keeping your bartenders and kitchen crew fueled during long shifts. For catering gigs, this bulk pasta lets your kitchen crank out large volumes of food quickly, freeing up your bar team to focus on seamless drink service and custom mocktails.

Storage & Handling

For optimal quality and shelf life, store these bulk cases of Barilla Penne Rigate #72 in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and any strong odours that could compromise its neutral flavour.

Once opened, transfer unused pasta to airtight, food-grade containers to protect it from moisture and contaminants in a busy commercial environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does barilla penne pasta take to cook?+
For Barilla Penne Rigate #72, the standard cook time to achieve an al dente texture is typically around 11-12 minutes. This can vary slightly depending on your commercial kitchen equipment, water temperature, and desired firmness for holding or immediate service. We often recommend a minute or two less if it's going into a hot sauce or being finished further in a commercial setup, ensuring it doesn't get overcooked during holding.
How long does penne rigate pasta take to cook?+
Penne Rigate, including this Barilla #72 bulk product, generally cooks to an al dente texture in about 11-12 minutes. The 'rigate' ridges mean it can sometimes take a touch longer than smoother pasta shapes to ensure even cooking throughout. Always taste-test your batches to confirm the perfect texture for your specific menu applications, especially when preparing large quantities for food service, as consistency is key.
Does barilla penne pasta have eggs?+
No, standard Barilla Penne Rigate, including this bulk #72 product, typically does not contain eggs. It's traditionally made from just durum wheat semolina and water. This is a common characteristic for many dry pasta varieties, making it suitable for a wider range of dietary considerations in high-volume food service, like schools or hospitals. Always check the specific packaging label for the most accurate and up-to-date ingredient list for your operational needs.
Is barilla penne pasta healthy?+
Barilla Penne Pasta, like this #72 bulk offering, is a source of complex carbohydrates, which provides sustained energy, a key consideration for active populations in schools or events. While it's generally considered part of a balanced diet, its 'healthiness' depends entirely on portion size and the sauces and accompaniments it's served with in your menu applications. For specific nutritional information, consult the product's packaging or Barilla's official food service resources.
Is barilla penne pasta gluten free?+
No, this standard Barilla Penne Rigate #72 pasta is not gluten-free, as it is made from durum wheat semolina. Wheat is a primary source of gluten, making it unsuitable for gluten-sensitive diets. For operations requiring gluten-free options, you would need to source specific gluten-free pasta products, which Barilla also offers in other lines, but this bulk item is explicitly not gluten-free.
How to use Barilla, Penne Rigate Pasta #72 2 in a commercial kitchen?+
In a commercial kitchen, Barilla Penne Rigate #72 is a workhorse for large-scale production, commonly served with robust sauces like bolognese, arrabbiata, or baked into casseroles and pasta bakes. Its ridged surface holds sauces exceptionally well, which is crucial for guest satisfaction. The bulk 10lb format (2 units per case, 50 cases per pallet) is ideal for efficient high-volume cooking in institutional settings, large event catering, or bustling restaurant kitchens where consistency and quantity are paramount.
How to prepare Barilla, Penne Rigate Pasta #72 2 for service?+
To prepare Barilla Penne Rigate #72 for service, begin by bringing a very large volume of heavily salted water to a rolling boil in your commercial pasta cooker. Add the pasta, ensuring the water returns to a boil quickly to maintain even cooking. Cook for about 11-12 minutes to achieve an al dente texture, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, especially with large batches. Drain well and immediately toss with a small amount of oil or your prepared sauce if holding for a short period, or serve directly with your desired preparations for best quality.
How to store Barilla, Penne Rigate Pasta #72 2 for maximum shelf life?+
To maximize the shelf life of Barilla Penne Rigate #72 bulk pasta, store unopened cases in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, humidity, and strong odours. This prevents moisture absorption and flavour contamination. Once an individual 10lb bag is opened, if it's not fully used, transfer any remaining pasta into airtight, food-grade containers to protect it from moisture, pests, and potential cross-contamination. Proper storage is absolutely crucial for maintaining quality and extending the usability of dry pasta in large food service inventories.
What is the standard cocktail ratio with this Barilla Penne Rigate product?+
Barilla Penne Rigate #72 is a dry pasta product and is not designed for cocktail ratios or mixology applications. It's a foundational ingredient for culinary dishes, providing a solid base for robust sauces in high-volume foodservice settings, not a beverage component. For bar applications, especially regarding liquid measurements and mixology, you'd typically look at syrups, purees, or spirits, not a dry durum wheat pasta product. This bulk pasta is intended solely for kitchen prep, not the bar rail itself.
Which spirits or base ingredients pair best with Barilla Penne Rigate #72?+
As Barilla Penne Rigate #72 is a pasta, it doesn't pair with spirits in a direct mixology sense, as it's a food item, not a drink ingredient. Instead, in a culinary context, it pairs exceptionally well with classic Italian sauces like rich marinara, hearty bolognese, or creamy alfredo due to its ridged surface. For a bar manager overseeing a broader food program, thinking about spirits would involve selecting specific wines or aperitifs to complement pasta dishes served from the kitchen, rather than mixing spirits directly with the pasta itself.
