*NEW* Spaghetti alla Chitarra Pasta, Organic, by Italian Harvest, 1.1 lb (500 g), 12/CS

Spaghetti alla chitarra is the signature pasta of Abruzzo, named for the "chitarra," a traditional wooden frame strung with thin steel wires. Sheets of pasta dough are pressed through the strings, producing long strands with a square cross-section rather than a round one. The result is a pasta with a distinctive bite and a slightly rough surface that clings to sauce. Its sturdy texture stands up to rich, robust sauces. Try it with a classic Abruzzese lamb ragù, a simple tomato and pecorino sauce, or fresh seafood. It is equally good with a light dressing of olive oil, garlic, and chili.
