Leave it to Stanley Tucci to make the upcoming cooler months a bit cozier with pasta. The avid cook is releasing a recipe kit that’s perfect for chilly nights at home and restful meals ahead of the holidays.

Pasta enthusiasts were crushed early this year when Ronzoni discontinued its beloved star-shaped pastina, making the Italian staple much harder to find. Thankfully, Stanley Tucci has stepped in (because who else?) to resolve this culinary crisis.

But while pastina is used in an everyday meal, stelline is something special. The star shape lends itself to celebrations like weddings.
