Tagliatelle
Tagliatelle (; from the Italian ''tagliare'', meaning "to cut") are a traditional type of pasta from the Emilia-Romagna and Marche regions of Italy. Individual pieces of ''tagliatelle'' are long, flat ribbons that are similar in shape to fettuccine and are traditionally about wide.''The Classic Italian Cookbook'', 1973 by Marcella Hazan ''Tagliatelle'' can be served with a variety of sauces, though the classic is a meat sauce or Bolognese sauce. Tagliatelle are traditionally made with egg pasta. The traditional ratio is one egg to one hundred grams of flour. Origins Legend has it that tagliatelle was created by a talented court chef, who was inspired by Lucrezia d'Este's hairdo on the occasion of her marriage to Annibale II Bentivoglio, in 1487. In reality, this was a joke invented by humorist Augusto Majani in 1931. The recipe was called ''tagliolini di pasta e sugo, alla maniera di Zafiran'' (tagliolini of pasta and sauce in the manner of Zafiran) and it was served on silve ...

Bolognese Sauce
Bolognese sauce (, ; known in Italian as ''ragù alla bolognese'', , ''ragù bolognese'', or simply '' ragù'') is a meat-based sauce in Italian cuisine, typical of the city of Bologna. It is customarily used to dress '' tagliatelle al ragù'' and to prepare '' lasagne alla bolognese''. Italian ''ragù alla bolognese'' is a slowly cooked meat-based sauce, and its preparation involves several techniques, including sweating, sautéing and braising. Ingredients include a characteristic ''soffritto'' of onion, celery and carrot, different types of minced or finely chopped beef, often alongside small amounts of fatty pork. White wine, milk, and a small amount of tomato paste or tomatoes are added, and the dish is then gently simmered at length to produce a thick sauce. Outside Italy, the phrase "Bolognese sauce" is often used to refer to a tomato-based sauce to which minced meat has been added; such sauces typically bear little resemblance to the Italian ''ragù alla bolognese ...

Pasta
Pasta (, ; ) is a type of food typically made from an unleavened dough of wheat flour mixed with water or eggs, and formed into sheets or other shapes, then cooked by boiling or baking. Rice flour, or legumes such as beans or lentils, are sometimes used in place of wheat flour to yield a different taste and texture, or as a gluten-free alternative. Pasta is a staple food of Italian cuisine. Pastas are divided into two broad categories: dried () and fresh (). Most dried pasta is produced commercially via an extrusion process, although it can be produced at home. Fresh pasta is traditionally produced by hand, sometimes with the aid of simple machines.Hazan, Marcella (1992) ''Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking'', Knopf, Fresh pastas available in grocery stores are produced commercially by large-scale machines. Both dried and fresh pastas come in a number of shapes and varieties, with 310 specific forms known by over 1,300 documented names.Zanini De Vita, Oretta, ''E ...

Fettuccine
Fettuccine (; lit. 'little ribbons'; sing. ''fettuccina'') is a type of pasta popular in Roman and Tuscan cuisine. It is descended from the extremely thin capelli d'angelo of the Renaissance but is a flat, thick pasta traditionally made of egg and flour (usually one egg for every of flour). At about , it is wider and thicker than, but similar to, the tagliatelle typical of Bologna, which are more common elsewhere in Italy and often used as a synonym. ''Spinach fettuccine'' is made from spinach, flour, and eggs. The terms fettucce and fettuccelle are often used as synonyms for this pasta, but the former term is more precisely used for wider (about ) and the latter for narrower (about ) forms of the same pasta. Fettuccine is often classically eaten with ''sugo d'umido'' (beef ragù) or ''ragù di pollo'' (chicken ragù).Boni (1983), pg. 44. Dishes made with fettuccine include fettuccine Alfredo, which – born in Rome as a homemade pasta dish topped with an emulsion of but ...

Pizzoccheri
Pizzoccheri (; lmo, label= Lombard, pizòcher ) are a type of short tagliatelle, a flat ribbon pasta, made with 80% buckwheat flour and 20% wheat flour. When classically prepared in Valtellina (a small valley located in the Lombardy region of Northern Italy) or in Graubünden, they are cooked along with greens (often Swiss Chard but also Savoy cabbage), and cubed potatoes. This mixture is layered with pieces of Valtellina Casera cheese and ground Grana Padano or Parmigiano Reggiano, and dressed with garlic lightly fried in butter. The dish was first identified in 1550, in the ''Category of Inventories of Things that May be Eaten in Italy'' by Ortensio Lando. Pizzoccheri can be made easily by hand. They can also be found pre-made. If Pizzoccheri are prepared at home, they must generally be eaten the same day. Two pizzoccheri fairs (or ''sagre'') take place in Teglio: ''La Sagra dei Pizzoccheri'', celebrated in July and the festival of ''The Golden Pizzocchero'', celebrated i ...

Tagliolini
Tagliolini () is a type of ribbon pasta, long like spaghetti, roughly wide, similar to tagliatelle, but thin like capellini. It is a traditional recipe in the Molise and Piedmont regions of Italy. In Piedmont it is called tajarin and made of egg dough (''pasta all'uovo''). The dough also contains semolina, flour and salt. It is typically served with butter and truffles (''tajarin ai tartufi'') or ''sugo d’arrosto'', a sauce made from the drippings of roast meat. Tagliolini have a short cooking time, especially when made from fresh dough, and work best with light sauces, fish, delicacies or soups. The word tagliolini is a diminutive of tagliare which means to cut. Variations * Tagliolini al limone (with lemon) * Tagliolini di Campobasso (prepared as usual in the town of Campobasso) * Tagliolini alle verdure (with vegetables) * Tajarin albesi (prepared as usual in the town of Alba, Piedmont Alba ( pms, label= Piedmontese, Arba; la, Alba Pompeia) is a town and ''co ...

Bavette (pasta)
Bavette ("bibs") is a type of pasta, a narrower version of tagliatelle. It is a ribbon noodle, similar to spaghetti, that has a flat section and a slightly convex shape. This type of pasta originates in Genoa and is the most typical type of Ligurian pasta cut. Although it can be disputed, bavette is one of the more ancient types of long pasta. Bavette is highly similar to linguine. Bavette is most frequently paired with traditional pesto sauces, but also pairs well with vegetables.

Bologna
Bologna (, , ; egl, label= Emilian, Bulåggna ; lat, Bononia) is the capital and largest city of the Emilia-Romagna region in Northern Italy. It is the seventh most populous city in Italy with about 400,000 inhabitants and 150 different nationalities. Its metropolitan area is home to more than 1,000,000 people. It is known as the Fat City for its rich cuisine, and the Red City for its Spanish-style red tiled rooftops and, more recently, its leftist politics. It is also called the Learned City because it is home to the oldest university in the world. Originally Etruscan, the city has been an important urban center for centuries, first under the Etruscans (who called it ''Felsina''), then under the Celts as ''Bona'', later under the Romans (''Bonōnia''), then again in the Middle Ages, as a free municipality and later '' signoria'', when it was among the largest European cities by population.
