Setaro Amorini is a distinctive short, spiral-shaped pasta made by Pastificio Setaro in Torre Annunziata, near Naples, Italy. Its charming name comes from the Italian word amorini, a term associated with little Cupids or cherubs and derived from amore, meaning love. The compact twisted shape provides plenty of curves and texture for capturing flavorful sauces.
How to Use Setaro Amorini
Amorini pairs beautifully with tomato sauces, vegetables, pesto, creamy sauces, and meat ragù. Its compact spiral shape holds sauces and small ingredients particularly well, and its distinctive appearance also makes it an attractive choice for pasta salads and special-occasion dishes.
