Mezze Maniche Pasta

Pronounced “Med-ze Maan-ikay” in Italian or “The James Martin One” in Yorkshire.

Ridged tubes of pasta almost as wide as they are long, with furrows down the outside. Rumoured to be hard to find and unlikely to be appreciated outside of Rome, this stylish number is making its debut in Yorkshire. They are capable of holding a range of sauces, from substantial and meaty to creamy and velvety.
