POLOKWANE – Rigatoni are a form of tube-shaped pasta of varying lengths and diameters originating in Italy. They are larger than penne and ziti, and sometimes slightly curved, though nowhere near as curved as elbow macaroni.
In this recipe, What’s for Dinner says you can try them in a delicious roasted tomato sauce, served on decadent rigatoni.
