The Take

Fagottini earns a Slop Score of 12. Real versions deliver fresh egg pasta dough and honest fillings like ricotta or vegetables.

Browned butter sage or olive oil finishes keep it simple and Italian. Packaged or restaurant shortcuts turn it into average pasta.

The Verdict

Fagottini is worth making or ordering only when the kitchen uses fresh dough and real ingredients. The rest is just dressed-up carbs.

Pair with a wedge of real Parmigiano Reggiano and a decent chianti. Slop Score 12.
