A real flavour explosion: discover our italian filled pasta!
Nonna Rina fresh filled pasta is born from a love for Italian tradition and the desire to bring an authentic, delicious and simple product to the table every day, just like grandma used to make. Our range includes three major families of filled pasta: Ravioloni, fresh Tortellini and Girasoli — different shapes united by one philosophy of quality.
What makes our fresh filled pasta unique is the generous filling, which makes up more than 60% of the product. This percentage is above the market average and guarantees a rich, authentic taste in every bite. In addition, the thin pasta sheet enhances the filling instead of covering it, turning every forkful into a complete experience.
Every product is created through the careful selection of high-quality ingredients. The pasta dough is prepared with eggs from free-range hens and premium flour, while the filling highlights fresh and authentic ingredients. Many recipes feature Nonno Nanni cheeses such as Robiola, Stracchino and Burrata, chosen for their balanced flavor and naturally creamy texture. Some products are also available in lactose-free versions, so you never have to give up great taste. Our range of fresh filled ravioli includes varieties such as Speck and Robiola Ravioloni, Porcini Mushroom and Stracchino Ravioloni, and Ricotta and Spinach Ravioloni. Fresh tortellini are available with Prosciutto Crudo or White Meats. Girasoli, our most recognizable shape, come in flavors such as Cacio e Pepe, Pesto and Stracchino, and Sun-Dried Tomatoes with Burrata.
Fresh filled pasta is the ideal solution for anyone who wants to eat well while preparing lunch or dinner quickly. Thanks to the short cooking time — just 3 minutes — you can serve a complete and flavorful first course even on your busiest days. It is the perfect choice for family lunches, dinners with friends or simply making an everyday meal feel special. Nonna Rina fresh pasta pairs beautifully with countless sauces and seasonings: from a simple drizzle of melted butter and sage to enhance the filling, to richer combinations with mushrooms, cream or fresh cherry tomatoes. Discover the recipes on our website and find the perfect inspiration for every occasion.
Nonna Rina fresh filled pasta can be stored in the refrigerator until the expiry date indicated on the package, generally within 30–40 days from purchase. Once opened, consume within 2 days. Alternatively, you can freeze it and cook it directly from frozen in 4–5 minutes without defrosting.
Bring plenty of salted water to a boil, add the fresh filled pasta and cook for about 3 minutes. Do not stir too much to avoid breaking the pasta sheet. Drain gently with a slotted spoon and season as desired. For the best result, briefly toss the pasta in a pan with your chosen sauce and a spoonful of cooking water.
Some products in the range are available in lactose-free versions, made with specially formulated Nonno Nanni cheeses. Always check the packaging: lactose-free products are clearly indicated on the label. The other products contain milk and dairy ingredients in the filling.
The filling accounts for more than 60% of the total product weight — a percentage significantly higher than the average for packaged filled pasta. This means that every bite is mainly rich filling, enhanced by a thin pasta sheet that never overpowers the flavor of the ingredients inside.
The ideal sauce depends on the filling: fresh cheese ravioli pair perfectly with melted butter and sage or a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil with Parmesan cheese. Tortellini are best enjoyed in broth, with cream or with meat sauce. Girasoli, with their richer fillings, are delicious with lighter seasonings such as fresh cherry tomatoes, pesto or simply browned butter. Discover all our ideas in the recipe section.
Yes, fresh filled pasta can easily be frozen before opening. Store the unopened package in the freezer for up to 3 months. When ready to cook, place it directly into boiling salted water without defrosting: 4–5 minutes are enough for a perfect dish.
