Revolution in Tuscany! In the small town of Lari, near Pisa, the legendary Martelli family started making pasta in 1926. For the past 77 years, they have only been making 4 shapes of pasta (Spaghetti, Spaghettini, Maccheroni and Penne). In 2013 they added a new shape of pasta: FUSILLI. Thick, corkscrew shaped pasta.
