De Cecco Tagliatelle all'Uovo Paglia e Fieno (Egg pasta) Nº 108 250g
A tasty variation on classic egg Tagliatelle, "paglia e fieno" (straw and hay) egg Tagliatelle are enriched with tender leaf spinach worked into the dough, for dishes full of flavour, aroma and imagination.
They originate from the regions of northern Italy, particularly from the gastronomic and culinary tradition of Emilia.
The Emilian origin of Tagliatelle is reflected in their presence in popular sayings and expressions rooted among the people of Emilia. One example of the Tagliatelle's deep Emilian roots can be found in Pellegrino Artusi's "Science in the Kitchen and the Art of Eating Well": "Short bills and long tagliatelle, say the Bolognese, and they say well, because long bills frighten poor husbands, while short tagliatelle betray the incompetence of whoever made them and, served that way, look like kitchen leftovers."
Their natural versatility makes them delicious with every type of sauce: they're excellent as a simple pasta dish or baked pasta, and pair perfectly with fish and shellfish-based sauces, butter, white sauces made with soft cheeses, and cream with the addition of curry or saffron.
