The Bucatini are a type of long pasta similar to big pierced spaghetti, typical of the city of Rome that combines them with strong and simple condiments (Gricia, Amatriciana, Carbonara). It is a pasta made from durum wheat semolina.
Cooking time is more or less the same as spaghetti because, even if they are bigger, the water passes through the central hole (during cooking), which allows it to cook quickly enough. The condiment par excellence of this pasta format is Amatriciana: a sauce made with Guanciale and Tomato.
