Amori, also known as cavatappi [kava?tappi] is macaroni formed in a helical tube shape. Cavatappi is the Italian word for corkscrews. It is known by other names, including cellentani, amori, serpentini, spirali, or tortiglione. It is not to be confused with a different pasta shape that is often called "corkscrew pasta" and that also goes by several names, that other shape being fusilli, also known as rotini, eliche, girandole, tortiglioni, or spirali, which is distinguished by fusilli being a twisted flat pasta rather than cavatappi's hollow tube shape. Cavatappi is usually scored with lines or ridges (rigati in Italian) on the surface. Cavatappi is a type of macaroni, or thick, hollow pasta that is made without using eggs. It may be yellow in color, like most pastas, or have vegetables or a food coloring added to make it green or red. It can be used in a variety of dishes including salads, soups, and casseroles. Amorini are a pasta shape similar to amori, only slightly smaller. Other names used to indicate the “Little love” pasta shape: Cavatappi. Cellentani.
