Type of pasta
Pizzoccheri (Italian: [pitˈtsɔkkeri]; Lombard: pizzòcher, Lombard: [piˈtsɔkɐr]) is a type of short tagliatelle, a flat ribbon pasta, made with a blend of buckwheat flour and wheat flour. It is believed to have originated in Valtellina, a valley in the northern Italian region of Lombardy. They are also popular in Val Poschiavo, a side valley of Valtellina which belongs to the Swiss canton of Grisons.
Pizzoccheri can be made by hand or can be purchased pre-made.[1][2]
