Facts:“Lu Carrature”, is the typical instrument used to make pasta alla chitarra. Surely the name derives from an Abruzzese declension of the French term “carrer”, which means “to square regularly”. This tool technically consists of a rectangular wooden frame, with many steel wires placed next to each other at a distance of just over a millimeter, held tight by a large number of "keys". This device certainly gave its name to pasta, which is very reminiscent of the musical instrument. Note:Rolling pin not included
