Ziti Tagliati Lisci

Short, smooth, short tube-shaped pasta. Originally Ziti are a long type of pasta, usually hand broken before cooking and traditionally served on Sundays or important occasions. In this short version, they are perfect for those who are in a hurry but do not want to give up the taste of this incredible pasta dish. Can be combined with a classic sauce of the Neapolitan tradition or with more creative versions, perfect to bake in the oven. The name Ziti came from zita who were the unmarried girls that stayed at home on Sundays to break the pasta with their own hands instead of going to mass. Today this practice is now performed in the homes of many Neapolitans and represents a real ritual performed by family members before cooking the dish
