Fusilli
(Fusilli Lunghi, Fusilli Bucati, Corkscrew Pasta)
Fusilli are a long, spiral-shaped type of Italian pasta, literally translated to little spindles or twists, referring to their shape. They are characterized by their design which makes them ideal for holding both thick and thin sauces.
Fusilli can be eaten on their own in numerous pasta dishes, used in pasta salads, added to soups, or baked in casseroles. When cooked properly, or al dente, fusilli have a dense and chewy texture. Some claim that fusilli were originally invented in Southern Italy by rolling spaghetti around a thin rod, then letting them dry.
There are other varieties of fusilli, such as fusilli bucati, made with hollow tubes of pasta that is twisted into corkscrews, and fusilli lunghi, which are long strands of spiral pasta, similar in length to spaghetti.
