Rustiche

Rustiche are ribbons of pasta with serrated edges. The Wikipedia list of pasta records the shape in its long and medium length group and gives no size. No fetched brand page, encyclopedia entry or regional food site describes a shape under this name. Searches return only unrelated products such as penne rustiche and tagliatelle rustiche. The dough, the width and the cutting method remain undocumented here.

The Wikipedia list gives Apulia as the origin. No independent source confirms it. A survey of Puglia pasta recipes on The Pasta Project does not list the shape. Sauce pairings are also unrecorded. A serrated ribbon of this kind sits near mafaldine and lasagnette ricce in use, but that is a comparison, not a documented tradition.
