Garganelli
Garganelli is ridged, seam-marked tube pasta, boiled before serving so its hollow, textured surface holds sauces; it may be fresh or dried.

About Garganelli
Garganelli is a ridged, tube-shaped pasta traditionally made by rolling small squares of pasta dough diagonally around a slender rod. The resulting short tubes have a visible seam and ridges that give the pasta a firm, slightly chewy texture when cooked. It is a pasta shape, not a particular sauce or filling.
It is commonly made from wheat-based dough and sold dried or fresh, with egg included in some versions. Garganelli is boiled before serving and used with sauces that cling to its ridged surface and hollow centre. Ingredients and nutrition can differ between egg pasta, plain dried pasta and fresh versions.
