Orecchiette are a type of fresh pasta typical from Puglia, made from re-milled durum wheat flour, water and salt. The round and concave shape is similar to small ears, hence their name! With a rough surface, a thin interior and a thicker edge, they are perfect for accommodating the most varied condiments, from the classic tomato sauce and ricotta to the traditional orecchiette with turnip greens.
