How do they not get it confused with elbow pasta?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Confusingly enough, in Italy I believe it is not quite a thing "elbow pasta". Personally I have never heard anyone refer to any kind of pasta as "gomiti", though Google showed me that they indeed exist. I have always heard the ones that looks like elbows in other names.
