Redazione

Charmed by Aunt Carla’s unmistakable way of speaking, the rigatoni con la pajata represent the trattoria’s most authentic dish. The pasta is tossed in a thick, reduced tomato sauce, where the pajata (the small intestine of a milk-fed calf) releases all its characteristic creamy texture and the unique, bold flavor of Roman quinto quarto. A sprinkling of grated pecorino romano completes this monumental dish, beloved by purists of the true cuisine of Testaccio and Trastevere.
