Setaro Organic Linguine is an organic long, narrow, flat pasta made by Pastificio Setaro in Torre Annunziata, near Naples, Italy. Linguine means "little tongues" in Italian, a reference to the pasta's elongated, flattened shape. Unlike round spaghetti, Linguine has a flat profile that provides additional surface area for sauces.
What Is the Difference Between Linguine and Spaghetti?
While Spaghetti has a round profile, Linguine is narrow and flat. Its flattened strands provide more surface area for sauce and are especially well suited to seafood, pesto, and olive oil-based preparations.
How to Use Setaro Organic Linguine
Linguine is famously paired with clams and other seafood and also works beautifully with pesto, shrimp, fresh tomato, garlic, lemon, and extra virgin olive oil. Its flat strands hold lighter sauces while remaining substantial enough for flavorful seafood preparations.
