Farfalle, originally from Lombardy and Emilia Romagna, takes their name from their distinctive bow-tie shape with a tight frill in the centre.

The condiments recommended for Farfalle are light sauces: sauces made from butter with peas and ham; white sauces with delicate flavours made from salmon and cream; sauces made from mild, soft cheeses with a dash of saffron or curry.

This pasta is also great for preparing delicious, colourful, imaginative pasta salads.
