Diana: Thanks for your comment. Could it have been Umbricelli? It’s a cousin to “pici” from Tuscany. Here’s a link I found on Pasta Grannies… https://www.pastagrannies.com/home/2016/7/2/how-to-make-umbricelli-pasta

The town reached by an elevator was so charming and friendly. The pasta was the star and the sauce was a simple light, bright tomato sauce. It looked like a fat spaggetti but was tender and just delicious. I do not like spaggetti regardless of brand and I don’t make. I do make pasta with or without a machine on occasion and we make our own ravioli. Would you know this specialty of the Umbria region and if so would you share the recipe for this pasta?
Thank you.
