Trofie
Trofie is a handmade pasta variety from Liguria, dating back to the times of the Crusades. It is traditionally made with durum wheat flour and water, then shaped by rolling a tiny piece of dough on a flat surface. The dough is then twisted to develop its final shape.
Trofie is usually served with pesto sauce, and it is believed that the pasta got its name from the word strufuggiâ, meaning to rub, referring to the method of production.
