Farfalle
Pasta about 1 1/2 inches (4 cm) long that is shaped like a butterfly, or a bow-tie if you like.
Farfalle is a classic pasta to serve with a plain tomato sauce that you will serve with olive oil at the table, as the shape will capture both beautifully. It is also very easy to eat. When cooked just tender to the bite, the shape makes them respond beautifully to the texture and become "toothsome".
Sold dried.
Substitutes
Another kind of shaped pasta.
Language Notes
Smaller versions are called "farfalline"; larger versions are called "farfalloni". "-ino" in Italian makes things smaller; "-one" makes them bigger.
