FUSILLI WITH
BATTUTO DI ERBE
P. 79
Through trial and
error, generations
of sfoglini have
established perfect
shape and sauce
pairings. So don’t
just go willy-nilly!
It’s all about
viscosity: Thicker
sauces crave wide,
flat noodles with
plenty of surface
area, while thinner
sauces go best with
nooks and crannies
in which to catch
and linger. Here
fusilli is an ideal
magnet for the fine
texture of herby
spring batutto.
