Organic Nodi Marini Pasta
Tied to Tradition
Every shape has a story, and nodi marini — "sailor's knots" — wears its history in every twist. Loosely coiled and knotted like the rope work that kept Italian fishing boats seaworthy, this is one of Italy's most expressive pasta shapes. In Puglia they call it molloni, like a spring coiling back on itself. In Naples, it goes by vesuvio, a nod to the great volcano that watches over the bay. Giada discovered it on a trip to Italy and loved it so much she brought it home to Giadzy.
Made with organic durum wheat and crafted alongside master pasta makers from across Italy, each twisted bite is a little piece of that journey — full of character, texture, and the kind of joy that only a truly special pasta shape can bring.

How to Enjoy It
