Angel Hair is one of the most delicate and refined of all pasta cuts. It is also known as Capellini, or “fine hair” and is the perfect choice when you want to pair a light, refined sauce with a delicate cut of pasta. These fine strands of golden, nutty pasta are a traditional favorite, and can be found on the tables of family dining rooms and small trattorie across Italy, where they are dressed with the best of the local flavors: fresh shrimp and vegetables in Naples, rich basil pesto in
Liguria, or creamy asparagus sauce in Venice.
