instant_fusilliWhich factors influence the right pasta for your industrial or food service application.... 
 
COOK TIME:  Does the pasta need to cook quickly - 2 minutes or so?  Instant or steamed product rehydrates quickly.  Perfect for stove top applications and microwave applications.  Thin-wall pasta also will cook up quicker.
 
PROCESSING:  Does the pasta need to withstand rigorous processing, like canning?  Will it be made into salad?  A heavy-wall product may be recommended and perhaps some added egg white.

Equipment Consolidation:  Need a product that's partially or fully-cooked for a frozen bagged meal or for a steam table?  IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) is the best option.
