Definitely shorter in length than penne rigate, this short pasta shape is known for being the most used in the creation of a first course with “Amalfitana” dressing (tuna, tomatoes, mozzarella and black olives).
Similar to Spaghetti but wider, Pici represent one of the recent innovations of the Rustichella d'Abruzzo Regional Formats. The classic condiment with which they are accompanied is aglione, a tomato sauce combined with a particular type of garlic that is born and grows only in Sarteano (Siena) and surroundings, but can also be combined with a liver sauce or more simply alle criciole (crumbs of Tuscan bread fried in olive oil). We also recommend pairing with Porcini Mushroom Sauce.
Formed with a shorter length than Riccia Lunga, it has the characteristic wavy edges that allow it to be combined with most of our condiments, from red to white, and is particularly suitable in ancient traditional Abruzzo recipes. Particularly appropriate is the combination with the sauce with Porcini Mushrooms and Norma di Rustichella d'Abruzzo.
Format similar to spaghetti but with a greater thickness and a square section instead of a round one, which derives from the typical tool used for its preparation (called "guitar"), which gives this pasta a decisive texture capable of completely capturing the condiment, which can range from a simple but delicious tomato and basil, to a more full-bodied and rustic one such as sausage and radicchio up to a more “healthy” one such as the “pesto alla Genovese” Rustichella d'Abruzzo.
Made of the same length as spaghetti but with a smaller diameter and therefore shorter cooking time, the noodles go very well with fish sauces or simply with garlic, oil and chilli.
