Considering that pasta with a lighter/whiter Colour, means it dries slower thus better quality, is De Cecco higher quality than Rummo? Although the general opinion is the opposite. I noticed that today.
Color alone isn’t a reliable indicator of pasta quality. Color varies by wheat type, origin, milling, drying etc. I prefer Rummo for its texture but my wife prefers de cecco 🤷

Look for semoina duram wheat when lookijg to buy pasta.
After that. It comes to personal preference. Taste of the pasta, how does the sauce interact, is it a thinner sauce, thicker.
Shop ingrediants and then move from there.

I always ask myself the same thing when looking at them. That deeper gold in the Rummo usually points to a slower drying time and higher protein. It gives a way better bite and is much more forgiving, it won’t turn into mush if you’re 30 seconds late draining the pot. Both of them are great.
