Fresh pasta workshop in Subiaco

Subiaco

Strozzapreti are the pasta of the upper Aniene: flour, water, and hands rolling each one against a board. In Subiaco you learn them from the people who show visitors the town the rest of the week.

How the day goes

  1. A table, flour and water, and the trick of rolling strozzapreti one by one.
  2. The guides who run it know Subiaco, so ask them where to go afterwards.
