minutesTagliolini is a variation of the tagliatelle pasta. The difference between these two lies in the paper-thin thickness and width of tagliolini, which measures no more than 3mm. Thanks to its fine and delicate shape, tagliolini works best with thin sauces such as this tomato crab version – perfect for hot and humid nights!
