Pignolina, named after the shape of pinecones (“pigna” in Italian), is a charming pasta that brings both texture and flavor to any dish. Although less known than other pasta shapes, it has roots in Southern Italy and is cherished for its unique form and versatility. Its small, tubular design makes it ideal for pairing with thick, hearty sauces, while its surface texture allows it to trap and hold sauce effectively.

While not as widespread as more popular pasta shapes, pignolina is especially loved in home cooking and traditional Italian kitchens. It adds an inviting touch to pasta dishes, making it perfect for soups, stews, and creamy casseroles, as it soaks up the flavors of the sauce.
