Pappardelle
Pappardelle (pap-arr-dell-eh) is a famous Tuscan pasta, whose name comes from the Italian verb "pappare" which means "to gobble up". This extra-wide flat pasta is characteristically known to accompany "chunky" sauces since its width helps hold onto large pieces of meat, the most famous being a Tuscan wild boar ragu. In southern Italy, you’ll find Pappardelle used in a similar manner, but instead of a thick sauce with chunks of meat, they use a light sauce consisting of chunky fresh cherry tomatoes, basil and olive oil as a sauce, which is quickly cooked before being tossed with the pasta.

Tonnarelli
Tonnarelli (tow-nah-rell-ee) is the famous western-Italian version of Spaghetti alla Chitarra. In the 1800's when Spaghetti alla Chitarra was born in Abruzzo, the neighbouring region Lazio decided to make their own version! This "new" pasta was basically the same as Chitarra, except double the size. An amazing thick-cut square spaghetti, Tonnarelli waged and won a great battle against its predecessor. This pasta is amazing for almost any sauce, and has a great bite to it. One dish in particular (which was also taken from Abruzzo by Lazio) is the famous Amatriciana, a salt-cured pork and tomato based sauce, topped with fresh pecorino cheese.

Chitarra
Spaghetti alla Chitarra (key-tarr-ah) originates from the Abruzzo region of Eastern Italy, it is famous for being the first home made pasta not to be cut by hand. Near the end of the 1800’s, The device “La Chitarra" was created; a simple wooden frame with wires tightly drawn across it. Sheets of pasta would be placed on top and pressed through the wires with a rolling pin, thus cutting a whole sheet of pasta in seconds. Our Spaghetti alla Chitarra keeps the square cut shape carried on from the tradition of wire cutting. It is very versatile, going perfectly with any kind of sauce, most famously, La Carbonara.

Tagliatelle
Tagliatelle (tal-ya-tell-eh) are a classic pasta that originated in the north-western regions of Italy. Similar to Fettuccini, Tagliatelle are a thin wide-cut flat pasta. The name comes from "tagliare" meaning "to cut”. Traditionally, Pasta makers would roll out large sheets of pasta, then cover them with flour and roll them up tightly. They would then start cutting out the pasta by hand. Tagliatelle is a versatile pasta, used for both light and heavy sauces, however in Italy it is most famously used to make "Tagliatelle alla Bolognese" the classic ground meat ragu sauce everyone has come to know and love.

Lasagna Sheets
Regal's Lasagna sheets, traditionally called Sfoglia (ss-foh-lee-ah), are what you would find in Italy, when making sheet based dishes like Lasagna, Cannelloni, Maltagliati, Tacconi, etc. These sheets are oven-ready — they don’t need to be boiled first. All you need is a pack of Sfoglia, a little imagination, and the world is your oyster. Cannelloni are just a half-sheet rolled up with a filling on the inside. Maltagliati is when you take the lasagna sheets and roughly cut them up however you'd like, and Tacconi is when you cut the lasagna sheets into large squares or rectangles.
