I bought the most expensive and also the cheapest pasta out there. I paid $1 per kilo for the cheap pasta and $15 dollar per kilo for the most expensive pasta. How come ? Pasta is pasta right ? Or is it ?

The cheap pasta that I bought says nothing about where the grain comes from, what durum wheat they used, or where it was made. The expensive pasta is made from organic durum wheat, in Gragnano in Italy, the birthplace of dry pasta in Italy. They are extruded with bronze dies which grants a great texture for sauce. Also they have been dried slowly at low temperature. Big difference in texture, big difference in price. This episode is part of my Dry pasta series.
