Tasty Tuna Tagliolini

Tagliolini is very similar to Tagliatelle but the difference is the ‘Taglia’ (Italian for cut.) Tagliolini are long cylindrical ribbons of pasta as opposed to the long and flat shape of Tagliatelle. It typically pairs well with a slow cooked meat sauce creating a rich Ragu or with a thicker sauce to create a creamy Carbonara. Italians often serve it with light sauces and Seafood & Vegetables are also very popular to create something fresh and simple.
