Scialatelli [ʃalaˈtɛlli] (also known as scialatielli [ʃalaˈtjɛlli], sciliatielli [ʃiljaˈtjɛlli] and scivatieddi [ʃivaˈtjɛddi])[1] is a type of thick and short fettuccine or linguine-like pasta featuring a rectangular cross section.[2] It is typical of modern Campanian cuisine, having originated on the Amalfi coast as a chef's specialty,[3][4] but it has also spread in nearby regions such as Calabria and Basilicata (respectively, in the area of Catanzaro and Potenza).[1]
