Gnocchi is an Italian pasta made of cooked mashed potatoes, flour, and eggs. These soft, doughy dumplings are typically served with a savory white or red sauce.
2Linguine
BRIAN WOODCOCK
Italian for “little tongues,” linguine is elliptical in shape and about 4 millimeters in width, which is wider than spaghetti, but not as wide as fettuccine. It's traditionally served with seafood or pesto, but we love it with crispy pancetta and Brussels sprouts!

Bucatini is a long pasta that’s similar to spaghetti, but thicker and with a hole running through the center. This means that with every bite, you get a little extra sauce. Yum!

Tagliatelle is a long, ribbon-shaped pasta that's similar to fettuccine. In fact, some people say they’re actually the exact same thing! This pasta is usually known as fettuccine in Rome and Southern Italy, while Northern Italians typically refer to it as tagliatelle.
