Stunning! I'd never heard of bussiati before - they look lovely!
ReplyDeleteBusiati are pretty typical of the Trapani area. They are made by wrapping the pasta around so-called "busi", a thin metal rod not unlike a knitting needle.
DeleteI admired your instagram photos of Sicily the other day. I have realtives living there and I have been to Sicily several times, I love it so much!
ReplyDeleteIt must in some ways also remind you of your beautiful homeland, no?
