Why choose it
Busiata is the signature pasta of Trapani, once rolled by hand around the stem of a wild plant, the busa. Antico Pastificio Aiuto makes these Trapanese busiate in the countryside of Marsala and dries them slowly, so they keep a firm bite.
Serving and pairing ideas
Trapani-style, with a pesto of tomato, almonds, garlic and basil, or with our pistachio pesto and a grating of ricotta salata.
With our Sugo alla Norma, or in bianco with swordfish, diced aubergine and fresh mint.
Cooking time: 12 minutes in plenty of salted water.
