Cut through a traditional chitarra loom to create its distinctive square cross-section, this Egg Spaghetti Chitarra from Egisto Grilli is a Central Italian classic reimagined with artisanal precision. Bronze-drawn for a beautifully textured surface and slow-dried at low temperatures, every strand delivers a rich egg flavour and a satisfying, firm bite.

Spaghetti alla chitarra is traditionally paired with a Abruzzese lamb ragù or a simple tomato and pecorino sauce, but its robust texture makes it equally at home with bold meat sauces or a fragrant seafood broth. A pasta with character — from the first forkful to the last.
