Barilla Thick Spaghetti Pasta, 10 Pound, 2 Packs Per Case

The Barilla Thick Spaghetti Pasta are long straws, which are thicker in diameter than regular spaghetti. Enriched with proteins and vitamins, this spaghetti pasta is healthy and can be served as an entree with meatballs and tomato sauce, Bolognese, or various other light and creamy sauces.

Uses

Hearty entrées: Serve as a main course with meatballs and tomato sauce, Bolognese, or rich cream-based sauces that cling to the thicker strands.
Pasta bakes: Layer into baked casseroles and oven-ready dishes where a sturdier noodle stands up to extended cooking and heavy ingredients.
Cold pasta salads: Toss cooked thick spaghetti with vegetables, olive oil, and vinaigrette for substantial pasta salads that travel well for catering and buffet service.
Soup and broth dishes: Cut into shorter lengths and add to minestrone, chicken broth, or other soups where a thicker noodle adds body and staying power.

Preparation & Use

Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the thick spaghetti and stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook 9 to 11 minutes for al dente texture, or slightly longer for softer strands depending on the dish. Drain well and toss immediately with sauce to coat the strands and prevent clumping. For baked applications, undercook by one to two minutes so the pasta finishes in the oven without becoming mushy. Each 10 lb. pack yields approximately 90 half-cup servings, making portion planning straightforward for high-volume kitchens.

Application Areas

Ideal for Italian restaurants, pizzerias with pasta side dishes, hospital and school cafeterias, hotel banquet operations, and any foodservice setting where a dependable, thick-strand pasta is needed in quantity. The two-pack case format works well for operations that want to open one pack at a time while keeping the second sealed for freshness.
