Linguine

Cereal Grains, Pseudocereals and Pasta

Linguine, sometimes anglicized as linguini, is a type of pasta similar to fettuccine and trenette but distinguished by its elliptical rather than flat cross-section. At around four millimeters wide it is wider than spaghetti but narrower than fettuccine, and while traditionally served with sauces such as pesto, tomato and fish based sauces are also popular.
