Penne

Penne

Penne means quill or feather, perhaps due to the slated ends of this ridged, tube-shaped pasta. A larger version is called pennoni or “giant pens.” Though penne originated in Liguria, one of the most beloved recipes for penne, called arrabbiata, comes from Rome. Arrabbiata, meaning “angry,” is a spicy red sauce made with tomatoes, chili peppers, and garlic. *Source: https://matadornetwork.com/read/every-italian-pasta-explained/* Recipe: Pasta Arrabiata *Source: https://www.saltandlavender.com/easy-pasta-arrabiata-recipe/*
