Description

Fusilli is a variety of pasta made up of corkscrew or helical shapes. It is "spun" by pressing and rolling a small rod over the thin strips of pasta to wind them around it in a corkscrew shape. Fusilli pasta works really well with any sauce, added to soups, or turned into a salad. This shape also bakes well in a casserole. The twisted shape holds more of the dressing in each bite for extra flavor while adding visual interest.This pasta shape is very popular and widely exported all over the world.

Selection Guide

Check the expiration date of the fusilli packet to make sure it is a fresh stock.

Gluten allergic people must avoid consuming fusilli. It may cause digestive problems and bloating.⁽¹⁾
