Everything to Know About Penne
- Not to be confused with the humble bowtie (actually called Farfalle) nor the swirly kind (Fusilli). Penne is the short cylinder-shaped one with angled edges.
- Originally from Genoa in the Liguria region of Italy, the shape of penne pasta was inspired by a quill.
- This explains the name 'penne' which translates to the word “pen”.
- This type of pasta shape is usually served with hearty vegetable sauces, heavier meat ragus or baked cheese dishes.
- Try the Penne alla Vodka or Penne Arrabbiata for a traditional, celebrated Italian recipe.
