Gemelli (pasta)

Gemelli (Italian: [dʒeˈmɛlli]; lit. 'twins'^[1]) are a type of pasta. They are most often used for making casserole or pasta salads.^[2]

Gemelli are not twin tubes twisted around one another, as they may appear to be, but rather a single strand with an "S"-shaped cross-section twisted into a spiral.^[3]
