Trader Joe’s Organic Cacio E Pepe Puff 4.9 oz

Cacio e pepe may just be the perfect example of two flavors combining to become more than the sum of their parts. Together, the savory sharpness of Cheddar and Romano and the bracing bite of cracked black pepper take on delicious, subtle complexity, far beyond what its simple construction would suggest. As proof of this pairing’s power to elevate any dish it’s added to, we offer Trader Joe’s Organic Cacio e Pepe Puffs, a delightfully satisfying snack that adds yet another dimension to this comfort food combo: light, airy crunchiness.

Starting from a base of puffed organic corn meal and organic brown rice flour, our supplier coats these delicately crispy Puffs with a seasoning blend that includes dried, organic Cheddar and Romano cheeses and organic black pepper. With every bite, you get both the classically cheesy and peppery cacio e pepe profile, and a resoundingly crunchy texture that keeps you coming back for more. They’re an ideal mix of simple and elegant, making them a great option for anytime snacking occasions, like movie nights or game days, as well as more formal applications, like crushing up and using as the bread crumb topping of a baked macaroni and cheese.
