Tagliatelle is a type of long format that is prepared in different variations, with meat sauce, vegetable sauce, mushrooms, fish and even with many types of cheese. They are a symbol of the Italian culinary tradition, always appreciated by adults and children alike. The history of Tagliatelle is ancient and fascinating. Their precise origins are not yet dated with certainty, but it is assumed that they date back to Roman times, when various types of fresh pasta made from flour and water were already widespread. Specifically, some scholars hypothesize that Tagliatelle derive from lagane, wide and flat pasta strips typical of southern Italy, already mentioned by Horace in the 1st century BC. However, their diffusion as we know them today occurred in the Middle Ages, especially in the regions of central and northern Italy.
