Square-Cut. Abruzzo-Born. Unmistakably Different.

Spaghetti alla Chitarra — “guitar spaghetti” — takes its name from the traditional wooden frame strung with steel wires used to cut the pasta into perfectly square strands. Unlike round spaghetti, the square cross-section creates four distinct edges that grip sauce from every angle, delivering a more textured, satisfying bite. A specialty of Abruzzo, it’s one of Italy’s most distinctive regional pasta shapes. Alto Spaghetti alla Chitarra is made from 100% organic, non-GMO, glyphosate-free Italian durum semolina, bronze-drawn and slow-dried for exceptional flavor. 10.5g of protein per serving.

Best Pairings

  • Lamb ragù with saffron — the traditional Abruzzese preparation, deeply aromatic and rich
  • Cacio e pepe — the square edges hold the creamy pepper-cheese sauce better than round spaghetti
  • Pomodoro & basil — the four-sided surface grips simple tomato sauce for a more flavorful bite
  • Carbonara — egg, guanciale, and Parmigiano coat every edge for maximum richness
