Orecchiette
Orecchiette, from orecchio + etto is a kind of home-made pasta typical of Puglia or Apulia, a region of southern Italy. Its name comes from its shape, which reminds one of a small ear. In the vernacular of Taranto it is called recchietedd, or chiancaredd. A slightly flatter version is called cencioni, while in the vernacular of Bari, strascinate are more similar to cavatelli. In China a similar type of pasta is called maoerdo. The Italian cookbook Il cucchiaio d'argento suggests that orecchiette are ideal for vegetable sauces.
