One of the most famous noodles in Germany is fusilli. They are often called Spirelli, Rotini and rarely Eliche.

The word fusilli comes from the Italian word “fuso”, which means spindle. In manual fusilli production, spaghetti is still wrapped around a spindle.

According to legend, fusilli were invented at the court in Florence around 1550. The cook's son sat under the kitchen table and played with fallen pasta scraps that he wrapped around a knitting needle. These were the first fusillis.
Not quite as clear, but much more likely, is the story that the Fusillis originated in southern Italy. At some point, spaghetti began to be rolled up in a spiral for drying, as this rotation made it much easier to dry and store.

What is undisputed is that the twists mean that the sauce combines particularly well with the pasta. Fusillis are easy to dry.

Fusillis are available with 2, 3, 4 or 5 wings. You can see how many propeller blades the Fusilli has by the die shape and also the die name. Ie a Fusilli A2 has two wings, an A3 has 3 wings, an A5 has 5 wings, in the “gigante” version – particularly large.

Step-by-step instructions for breastfeeding with the emeibaby carrier:

Please only use cold liquids.
Avoid flour, replace it with semolina.
Use binding agents such as xanthan gum, gluten, etc. only to a limited extent, a maximum of 1 teaspoon per 500 grams of dry ingredients. Otherwise the dough will be too firm and the dies could break.
If you knead the dough for longer or let it rest, the gluten will develop on its own.
You can recognize a good pasta dough by the fact that it is moist and crumbly.

The matrices can also be used to produce gluten-free pasta.

Immerse yourself in the world of your own pasta production with your palate friends. The taste of fresh homemade pasta is incomparably good.
