Linguini

Linguini is a type of pasta, specifically long, flat strands similar to fettuccine but usually narrower. Made from durum wheat and water, it is commonly used in Italian cuisine for dishes with light, creamy, or tomato-based sauces. Its smooth surface helps sauces cling well, making it popular for a variety of recipes. Linguini is versatile, often served with seafood, vegetables, or meat, and can be cooked al dente, meaning slightly firm to the bite. It’s appreciated for its elegant appearance and ability to pair with diverse flavors, making it a staple in many pasta dishes.
