Directions
The cuisine of Abruzzo, in Italy, offers many traditional tasty specialties, like the famous lamb skewer or the lamb with cheese and eggs. Even in the first courses this region delights us with recipes with strong and rustic flavors that never go out of fashion, like guitar spaghetti.
These are fresh noodles (also known as macaroni or tonnarelli) that have the typical square section that distinguishes them, made with a wooden frame on which are fixed metal wires that remember a guitar. The dressing of these spaghetti is a very tasty mixed meat sauce that requires a long cooking time and is enriched with very small beef meatballs. Bring to the table the flavors of Abruzzo with the recipe of guitar spaghetti with small meatballs.
