Characteristics, History and Pairings<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Tortiglioni<\/em> is a short, straight, tubular kind of pasta with spiralling grooves on the outside surface. The name derives from the Latin word tortillare<\/em>, meaning \u201cto wrap\u201d, a reference to the characteristic design from the lathe used in pasta manufacturing. Tortiglioni<\/em> pasta is part of the maccheroni<\/em> family and is one of the oldest shapes in Italy, and just as rigatoni<\/em>, it can be paired with a wide range of sauces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooking Time<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

12 minutes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Region of Origin<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s difficult to pinpoint the origins of this type of pasta: it most probably comes from the south of Italy, quite possibly form Campania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Pairings<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Tortiglioni can be paired with all types of sauces, especially with the most thick and robust, rich and creamy, such as ragu or creamy and cheesy sauces. Great to prepare oven baked dishes au gratin<\/em>. The hollow inside and the groovy outside perfectly capture any sauce. The most popular recipes include tortiglioni<\/em> \u201calla carrettiera\u201d with tuna, pecorino romano cheese and black olives, and tortiglioni<\/em> \u201calla genovese\u201d, which despite the name are not from Genoa but from Campania, with a ragu sauce with no tomato and a generous amount of onion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Durum wheat semolina and water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooking Tips<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Do you cook pasta in a sustainable way? Here are a few tips that can make a difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.<\/strong> Don\u2019t waste water, use only the necessary amount: 1 litre of water for every 100 grammes of dry pasta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.<\/strong> Cooking with a lid will save time and gas or electricity and the water will boil sooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3.<\/strong> Add the salt when the water starts boiling and add the pasta immediately after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4.<\/strong> Put the lid back on halfway through the cooking time, switch off the gas (or electric hob) and finish cooking your pasta in the hot water inside the covered pot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
