Interestingly, there isn't a specific type of pasta called "Pasta Orvieto." However, Orvieto, a town in Umbria, Italy, does have a rich culinary tradition that features some delicious pasta dishes! Here's what you might find:
- Pasta with Local Sauces: Fresh pasta like strangozzi (long, rectangular pasta) or umbrichelli (fatter, hand-rolled strands) are often paired with flavorful sauces that showcase local ingredients. These could include:
- Sugo finocchietto: A sauce made with fennel sausage, white wine, and tomatoes.
- Ragù di cinghiale: A hearty wild boar ragu.
- Tartufo sauce: Featuring the prized black or white truffles from the region.
- Simple Tomato-based Sauces: Classic pomodoro (tomato) sauce with fresh basil is a popular choice, highlighting the quality of local tomatoes.
While there's no single "Orvieto Pasta," these regional dishes combine fresh pasta with delicious sauces, making for a true taste of Orvieto!
