Cavatelli Pasta

Cavatelli Pasta

Cavatelli are a type of pasta. The term cavatelli has two meanings: the most common meaning is small pasta shells that look like miniature hot dog buns. It is similar in shape to casarecci, but shorter in length.[citation needed] The name is less frequently used for a type of dumpling made with ricotta.Spaghetti is fine for smooth tomato sauces, but a chunkier sauce needs a pasta that can trap and hold it as it travels from plate to mouth.  There are many whimsical pasta shapes that do just that, fashioned after such things as shells, corkscrews, wagon wheels, and radiators.   Shapes are easier to eat than rods or ribbons, so they're a good choice if you're serving kids or crowds.  Many are also sturdy enough to use in pasta salads and baked casseroles.
