Monteleone di Spoleto (PG) -
Monteleone di Spoleto (Pg). Monteleone will be celebrating its strascinati variety of home-made pasta, using only flour, water and salt, with the Strascinati festival on August 16th. Much like spaghetti, only rougher in shape, strascinati are recorded as far back as the late 15th century, when the women of Monteleone served them to two mercenary brothers named Vitelli, who were on their way down through Italy to besiege Naples in the service of the King of France.
