Scialatiello

Neapolitan scialatielli are a traditional pasta shape from Campania cuisine, particularly linked to the city of Naples. They appear as thick, short fettuccine, with a rustic, full-bodied consistency. Their characteristic shape and compact texture make them perfect for seasoning with rich and tasty sauces, such as Neapolitan ragù, or for fish-based dishes, such as the classic “scialatielli alle vongole”. La loro capacità di trattenere il condimento li rende un formato di pasta apprezzato per piatti succulenti e sostanziosi. Their ability to retain sauce makes them a popular pasta shape for succulent and substantial dishes.
