Vermicelli originally comes from the Neapolitan region and is considered to be one of the oldest types of pasta.

They taste particularly good with tomato sauce or are seasoned with vegetable sauces such as zucchini, eggplant and peppers. Also excellent with quick dressings with oil, garlic and chilli or with fish and shellfish sauces. After seasoning, they taste particularly good if they are tossed into a pan with a little oil.
