We love trying different kinds of pasta in the Local Crate test kitchen. In this recipe we introduce you to orecchiette pasta, which in Italian means “little ear.” These round, ear-shaped pasta have a perfect divot to hold sauce and grated cheese or crispy bits of meat. Not only is this little pasta very functional. We think it’s a lot of fun!
