Zitoni

A word about Pasta
I got this strange packet of pasta. It’s like a macaroni except the factory kinda got lazy and didn’t cut it. So it’s one long tube. Zitoni. After googling I discovered the zitonis are marconic in length. More google and I found this pasta thesaurus. Rather entertaining although a tad academic.

Still don’t know what to do with the zitoni though.

update: OK, this site has a more functional explanation of what to do with zitoni and all kinds of pasta.   But she’s also brought up a contentious point: are the origins of the pasta Chinese? She says it could be Etruscan.  Hmmmm.... this deserves another blog.
