From Lucido’s Pasta, a family-run operation with roots right here in Flower Mound, these tri-color mini bow ties are built on generations of Italian recipes. Crafted with intention, using traditional methods and quality ingredients to create a pasta that’s playful, structured, and full of flavor. You can see it right away, a mix of golden, green, and red mini bow ties made with ingredients like spinach and tomato, bringing subtle variation and a little visual joy to every bowl. What makes it different It’s made with a focus on texture and flavor first, using a slower, more intentional process than mass-produced boxed brands. The result is a pasta that holds its shape, cooks evenly, and delivers that perfect tender bite. The mini bow tie shape isn’t just fun, it’s functional. Those folds and ridges catch sauce beautifully, giving you a more balanced, flavorful bite every time. How it cooks Serves 2-4. Boil until al dente, tender with a slight bite. That texture is key. The smaller size cooks quickly, so keep an eye on it toward the end. Reserve a bit of pasta water before draining. It’s the easiest way to bring your sauce together and get that glossy, restaurant-style finish. How we love to use it Tossed with olive oil, garlic, and roasted vegetables for a simple, colorful bowl Paired with creamy or tomato-based sauces that settle into the folds Used in pasta salads where it holds up beautifully over time Finished with parmesan and fresh herbs for an easy, balanced dish From the family Lucido’s Pasta is built on family recipes and a deep connection to the local market scene, with roots across DFW farmer’s markets, including Denton and Flower Mound. Each product reflects that balance of tradition and practicality: honoring where it comes from while making it accessible for everyday cooking.
