Ingredients Wheat flour, water, and sometimes eggs.
How Made The flour is sifted onto a wooden board and kneaded long and vigorously with water and sometimes with a few eggs. When the dough is firm and smooth, it is covered and left to rest. Small pieces of dough are then pinched off and rolled on the wooden board to elongate them into the long, rough spaghetti. These are coiled, like sleeping vipers, and then dropped into abundant boiling salted water.
Also Known As No alternative names.
How Served Generally as pastasciutta, with tomato, oil, garlic, and chili.
