Organic Lumache Giganti, which means giant snails, is a large-sized and snail-shell-shaped pasta. In Italy, this pasta is commonly called “conchiglie” which literally means seashells. The story behind the name tells that a young pasta maker fell in love with a fisherman’s daughter and invented a sea-inspired pasta shape to impress her and win her heart.
