5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing
This is some of my favorite pasta of all time. I'm from New Jersey so I don't say that lightly!The flavor is great, the size is better! These shells are perfect for stuffing. I use a concoction of mashed white beans, garlic, and kale (tastes better than it sounds), stuff it into these cooked shells, and then place them into a glass tray with marinara sauce to cook a bit longer in the oven. Delicious. At least for me it can be a challenge to find extra large shells like this at ShopRite or other local grocery stores.Even with just a little marinara sauce they are delicious. I kind of wish the packaging was a little easier to open, but that's such a small thing. It's fancy!

I decided to do a stuffed pasta. I happen to enjoythe seafood this particular variety has given its name. Very clever
5.0 out of 5 stars Over a 50% price increase
Not a bad product. They were the largest organic shells, that I could find to stuff. However, I paid 9.06 in December 2023 and now they gave gone up another $5.39.....so until the seller comes back to Earth and adjusts the price, these will start on the self....they just aren't worth the price
4.0 out of 5 stars Organic Shells
These Organic Shells are very good. I made a tray of stuffed shells with ricotta and would definately purchase again from Bolo. The first package had some broken shells but the ones I just received look much better so looking forward to preparing another tray! No, alot of broken shells again but got about 20 shells that were not broken. Will save the pieces and maybe make a pesto sauce this time around!
5.0 out of 5 stars Love these!
That is all, (perfect for stuffed and baked)
1.0 out of 5 stars Don’t buy: falls apart
I been making baked shell pasta dishes for years and never had any trouble until now. Large shell pasta can be fussy and break easily but I found brands sold at other stores (e.g., Barilla, Ferrara, Pastifico G. Di Marlino) are much more forgiving than this Italian brand. I estimate that I get a “breakage rate” of about 10% (but most broken shells are only cracked and still usable), but with Seggiano every single shell was broken into dozens of pieces. I see my experience mirrored in the many submitted photos of broken pasta from other shoppers. Until W.F. switches brands, I’ll be shopping for large shell pasta elsewhere. Awful quality at any price.ADDENDUM: I bought another brand of jumbo shells at another store and they still fell apart on me! I did some research on-line to see if someone knew anything about what was going on with conchiglioni, especially with brands from Italy. I found a couple of plausible explanations on “color + personal pronoun” (a reminder that not everything on the internet is true so take this information with a big grain of salt). One possibility is bad quality control. Pasta makers are not properly drying their pasta and putting out an occasional bad batch. A second possibility is that a pasta maker is using local spring water with a high and specific mineral content (i.e., hard water). If one boils the pasta in water with a different pH or different mineral profile, a reaction that tears the pasta apart from within can occur. Apparently Barilla uses municipally treated water (from Bologna), so its water is similar to that in North America.With no better information to go on with, I plan to only buy domestic pasta brands or foreign brands that have consistently given me good results in the past. I hope this helps. Good luck out there.
