Trofiette

Trofiette is a pasta shape that blends perfectly with condiments and stands up well to cooking while remaining soft like fresh pasta. Once cooked and combined with our Pesto, the fragrance and flavor of the dish embodies all the history of this typical regional pasta specialty, derived from the ritual gesture of Genoese women who would rub and twist the pasta dough on the sideboard to give it this typical shape.
