Colavita Farfalle
Farfalle
This well-loved Italian pasta is commonly known as “bow-tie” pasta (a more commonly used term.) Farfalle derived its name from the Italian term “farfalla” which means “butterfly”. It is named as such since it technically resembles a butterfly and has a distinctive bow-tie contour. It is believed that its shape originated in Northern Italy. There are many variations of this classic Italian pasta such as plain, tomato, and spinach farfalle. This type of pasta is best used for heavy sauces such as marinara or cream-based dishes. Since it is a robust and appetizing pasta, it also complements casserole dishes and can be even used in a pasta salad.
