Strozzapreti, or “priest choker”, is an elongated, twisted pasta from the central regions of Italy - Emilia-Romagna, Tuscany, Marche and Umbria.
Its peculiarity is that the strips of dough are twisted by hand around themselves, giving it its characteristic shape. It is a unique, rustic type of short pasta.
It used to be made mainly for festive occasions by middle-class families. The Pastificio Fiorillo pasta is made using a traditional method, pressed with a bronze mould and slowly dried at a low temperature - this is how it gets its real character and makes it easy to cook al dente.
Its name is linked to several legends, often humorous: one says that priests ate it so greedily that they almost choked on it. Another says that farmers paid their rent to the church partly in pasta, and that peasant women who made the pasta were annoyed by the priests' insatiable appetite and wished they could drown in the pasta they had to give.
Thanks to its special shape, this pasta does not boil and is excellent for enclosing sauces, giving a similar experience to fresh pasta.
Serve with any of your favourite sauces - it's guaranteed to be a memorable dish!
