Even though I am a recipe developer, one would think I have great food around me 24/7. But the reality is some days I walk in the door from work and a good ole peanut butter and jelly sammich is all I have the strength to make, ha! Shhhh, that’s just between us, mmkay. Capellini, no. 1, also known as “angel hair,” is the finest and thinnest long pasta strand made by Barilla. It’s part of the “Classic Blue Box” range, sells in 16-ounce boxes big enough for 8 servings, and cooks to al dente in roughly 3–4 minutes.So, needless to say, I’m happy to update this post for you. Let’s be honest for a minute, most of us humans have jobs, busy calendar-filled lives, families with little ones, school, and other things going on that limit the amount of time that we have to prepare a really good meal. Trust me, I feel you. Both Barilla and De Cecco are Italian family-run companies with humble beginnings that grew into two of the biggest pasta companies in the world. They make boxed pasta from 100% semolina flour and their products are carried by almost every grocery store. In 1910, Pietro Barilla Sr. passed away. His two sons, Gualtiero and Riccardo Barilla, took over the family business. They built a pasta factory in the outskirts of town that employed 80 workers and produced 80 tons of pasta per day.
