It is made from durum wheat flour and water, and its distinctive corkscrew shape makes it perfect for holding onto thick sauces and other ingredients. Fusilli is a popular choice for pasta salads, casseroles, and dishes with chunky vegetables or meat, as the spirals can easily trap and hold onto the toppings. Its unique shape also provides a fun and interesting texture to the dish.
