Described by its maker as golden threads, these traditionally made Tajarin by Marco Giacosa are the embodiment of the Piedmont regional cuisine. Still cut by hand, they are delicious with a rich, hearty sauce and a glass of Sarasino D'Asti by La Vedetta.
HOW TO USE IT
Tajarin cook very quickly so don't get distracted. Boil abundant salt water, toss in for 2-3 minutes and drain. They give their best with autumn recipes such as a game ragù, or butter and truffle, or with a rich parmesan and porcini mushroom sauce.
WHY WE LOVE IT
It took us a long time to source the best Tajarin, and we finally found them in these Marco Giacosa's. They are fine, don't break during cooking, and retain the sauce brilliantly.
