The star-studded duo is adding an Italian twist to the holiday season by bringing this star-shaped pasta to the U.S. alongside two of Stanley Tucci's family recipes
ARLINGTON, Va., Nov. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Pasta enthusiasts were crushed when their favorite star-shaped pasta became harder to find in the U.S. earlier this year. S.Pellegrino® Sparkling Natural Mineral Water — whose logo just so happens to be a star — is coming to the rescue alongside everyone's favorite Italian American star, Stanley Tucci. Together, this star-studded duo is helping restock pantry shelves with this nostalgic staple just in time for the holidays with S.Pellegrino Stelline, a limited-edition star-shaped pasta.
Crafted in collaboration with premium Italian pasta brand Rummo, S.Pellegrino Stelline pasta pays homage to S.Pellegrino's iconic red star logo and satiates fans' cravings for the sentimental taste of pastina that's been served on Italian and American tables alike for decades. S.Pellegrino Stelline is available only for a limited time this holiday season as part of S.Pellegrino Presents: Stanley Tucci's Stelline Two Ways, a premium recipe kit artfully curated by the chef-driven meal kit experts at World Chef/YumCrunch.
"I had so much fun sharing a taste of my family's recipes with S.Pellegrino last year that we're doing it again — but this time, fans will get two dishes inspired by one beloved pasta shape that's a staple in my kitchen all winter long," said Stanley Tucci. "For many years, S.Pellegrino has held a special place at my holiday table. I'm honored to share my traditions with fans with this delicious recipe kit and play a role in bringing the classic star-shaped pasta to the many Americans who've been missing it with S.Pellegrino Stelline."
Each Stelline Two Ways recipe kit includes a selection of fresh ingredients, premium Italian products, two bags of S.Pellegrino Stelline pasta, and of course, a bottle of S.Pellegrino to perfectly complement each dish. Fans will be able to recreate two of Stanley's original recipes featuring our star pasta at home.
Stanley's Brodo di Gallina con Polpettine di Pollo (Chicken Soup with Tiny Chicken Meatballs) is an elevated take on chicken noodle soup made with hearty vegetables, handmade chicken meatballs and S.Pellegrino Stelline pasta. This dish is perfect for enjoying as a primi course for festive holiday feasts with friends and family gathered around the table and served alongside a chilled bottle of S.Pellegrino.
Pastina Classica is Stanley's version of the beloved pasta dish Italians and Americans alike know and love. Made with Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, butter and S.Pellegrino Stelline pasta, Pastina Classica is rich and creamy — the epitome of simple Italian comfort food that will keep fans warm all winter long.
"When we heard how dismayed fans were when one of their favorite pasta shapes was discontinued earlier this year, we wanted to find a way to help," said Sara Mayer, senior marketing manager, S.Pellegrino. "S.Pellegrino's iconic star logo serves as the perfect inspiration for bringing this star-shaped pasta to the U.S. along with help from our friend Stanley Tucci. We hope S.Pellegrino Stelline inspires everyone to add an authentic Italian touch to their holiday spreads and enjoy stellar moments together around the table."
For more than a century, S.Pellegrino has perfectly transformed any moment into an elevated and tasteful experience, whether it's at home or in some of the world's finest restaurants. Stelline Two Ways builds upon the success of last year's Taste of Tucci recipe kit and offers fans another delicious way to partake in the brand's multiyear partnership with Stanley Tucci.
