Usage

Thanks to their tubular and hollow shape, Alberto Poiatti's Zitelli are particularly suitable for recipes that require the sauce to adhere perfectly to the pasta. Here are some ideas on how best to use these delicious zitelli in your kitchen:

With Sauces and Pestos: Zitelli's unique shape allows them to capture sauces evenly. Try them with savoury pestos, such as Sicilian pesto or dried tomato and almond pestos, to enhance every bite with an explosion of flavour.

Vegetable Dishes: Zitelli are ideal with fresh vegetable and vegetable-based condiments. Their shape keeps the ingredients evenly distributed, making them perfect with courgettes, aubergines, peppers and cherry tomatoes.

With Ricotta and Broccoletti: Pair them with a creamy ricotta and broccoletti sauce. The pasta holds the cheese-based sauces well, bringing out the delicate flavours and offering a nutritious and tasty dish.

Vegetarian Dishes: Experiment with grilled vegetable-based sauces, add fresh herbs and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil for a light but tasty dish that celebrates the quality of Sicilian wheat.
