Casarecce is a type of short, twisted pasta that originated in Sicily. It is named after the Italian word for "homemade," which is fitting given its rustic appearance and traditional hand-rolled origins. It has a slightly rough texture that helps it to hold onto sauce.

Casarecce is a versatile pasta that can be used in a variety of dishes. It is a good choice for hearty sauces, such as ragù or Bolognese, as well as for lighter sauces, such as pesto or tomato sauce. It can also be used in soups and salads.
