eliche

We ordered three pastas, including eliche with fresh ricotta and wild fennel.

Eliche means propeller in Italian; the pasta is shaped like a spiral, or the path a propeller would make in the water.

Suddenly Holt held his fork aloft, eliche skewered on its tongs.

In one corner stood Leonardo’s helicopter, which resembled the eliche propellers we had eaten that first day.
