The hollow cups scoop up sauce, peas or pieces of meat, so the shape works with ragù and creamy sauces. Classic dishes for this shape: Bolognese sauce. Allergens: gluten (wheat). As with any pasta, use plenty of salted boiling water and toss it with the sauce straight after draining.

A common rule is about one litre of water and 7–10 g of salt for every 100 g of pasta.
