Carlo created these quadrangular spaghettini for our seafood sauces. (By ‘our’ I mean those of our native Marche). He designed the bronze dies in 1992.

Spaghettini chitarra? Who ever would have thought up anything so unlikely?

Despite their square shapes, they’re actually quite elegant.

Cooking times are the same as for spaghettini.

 

A dedication is called for, or better three:

 

To Cesare Benelli of il Covo in Venice.

 

To Vittoriano Pierucci of la Dogana at Capezzano Pianore (Lucca).

 

To the up and coming young Stefano Baiocco of the Grand Hotel Villa Feltrinelli at Gargnano, near Brescia.
