Lorighittas are one of the most authentic and rarest pasta shapes from Sardinia, and Pastificio Lu Rutigliu produces them by hand using a traditional method typical of northern Sardinia. The name of this pasta comes from the Sardinian word for “little rings” or “braids” which accurately describes its appearance - thin strands of dough are carefully twisted and joined into a ring shape, requiring exceptional precision and time.

Made exclusively from durum semolina and water, without eggs, Lorighittas have a firm and rough texture thanks to bronze-die extrusion, which allows them to hold rich sauces perfectly. Due to the complexity of the manual crafting process, Lorighittas are a rare delicacy and a symbol of local gastronomy.

Pastificio Lu Rutigliu remains faithful to the heritage of its ancestors, passing down this technique from generation to generation and preserving cultural identity through one of the most beautiful pasta shapes Sardinia has to offer.
