Finally, pasta-fans everywhere will be able to see for themselves how al dente™ pasta is made. They will see the tender, loving care sealed into each and every bag with the trademark black and white check tape
Al Dente, Inc. began back in 1981, when Americans still viewed their pasta as spaghetti. Al Dente founder, Monique Deschaine, recognized that the “times they were a changin’”. It was the beginning of what she refers to as the “Pasta Revolution”. Since then, pasta has become a household word and once exotic pesto and alfredo are familiar terms rolling off the tongues of pasta lovers everywhere. Specialty pasta has earned itself a permanent spot on the pantry shelf with the help of companies like Al Dente who pioneered this segment of the market.
Since 1981, the pasta-makers at Al Dente have been rolling out oodles of noodles and loving every minute of it. Among the17 different flavors, you will find the traditional Egg and Spinach fettuccine, and the more exotic Squid Ink, Spicy Sesame and Wild Mushroom Pasta. But no matter what the flavor, all the pastas are made with the best, all-natural ingredients. In addition, to guarantee that al dente™ pasta will always cook to tender, but firm perfection in just 3 minutes, the pasta is sheeted and rolled in the same way that an Italian Grandmother would do in her own kitchen.
Al Dente’s hope is that everyone in town will cook up some pasta on Saturday, June 26th to celebrate this unique success story as the Food Network Top 5 show goes behind the scenes to see what makes al dente™ pasta so special.
