Barilla Mezzi Rigatoni Pasta — 3-Pack (3 x 16 oz) Short Ridged Tubes, Durum Wheat Texture

Barilla Mezzi Rigatoni are shorter, ridged tubes of durum-wheat pasta sold in a convenient 3-pack of 16 oz boxes, designed to catch and hold sauce both inside and on their ridged exterior.

Bring classic Italian texture to weeknight dinners with Barilla Mezzi Rigatoni. This three-box bundle offers an easy pantry restock of a smaller, sturdier take on traditional rigatoni. The short, ridged tubes are crafted to capture chunky or creamy sauces while providing a satisfying bite thanks to their durum-wheat composition and enriched nutrients.

Why choose Mezzi Rigatoni instead of regular rigatoni?

Mezzi Rigatoni is a compact version of traditional rigatoni, keeping the same ridged surface and hollow center but in a smaller shape that cooks evenly and is easier to fork. The size makes it especially good for mixed dishes, where every piece carries sauce and ingredients. It’s a practical choice when you want the rigatoni experience without large, heavy tubes.

• Smaller tube length for quicker, uniform cooking
• Ridged exterior plus hollow center holds sauces well
• Durum-wheat semolina texture gives a firm bite

How does Barilla Mezzi Rigatoni perform with sauces and baked dishes?

The ridges and cavity help trap both thin and chunky sauces so flavors cling to every bite, making it reliable for stovetop sauces, casseroles, and gratins. It resists becoming mushy when cooked to al dente, so it stands up to finishing in a hot oven or skillet. That texture balance makes it versatile across tomato-based, cream, and vegetable-driven recipes.

• Holds tomato, cream, and meat sauces on inside and outside
• Maintains structure in baked pasta dishes and sautés
• Shorter length mixes evenly with vegetables and proteins

What nutritional and ingredient information should I know?

Barilla Mezzi Rigatoni is made from durum wheat semolina and is enriched with iron and B vitamins for added nutritional value. The pasta is produced with non-GMO ingredients and bears Kosher certification, offering straightforward pantry-friendly nutrition. As always, check the package for full ingredient and allergen details if you have specific dietary needs.
