Cavatappi

This uniquely shaped pasta is shaped like a corkscrew. Cavatappi is a macaroni curved in an s-shape tube. It has been bestowed with many names including cellentani, spirali, tortiglione, or serpentini. Vernacular names of this pasta are “scoobi doo” and “double elbows”. Typically, it has a furrowed or grooved surface making it able to hold sauces in salads and casserole dishes. Its name is technically derived from the compound terms “cava tappi” which means “tap extractor” or simply corkscrew.

Cavatappi	October 7, 2009
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from WA

There is a local store here that sells a particular pasta dish that I love and can't imagine using a different noodle for. The noodle is hard to find and your website looked reputable. So I am sure you will see me ordering more. =D
