The producer’s substantial strand
De Cecco describes its vermicelli as particularly substantial strands and suggests tomato sauce, zucchini, eggplant or peppers, garlic with oil and chili, and seafood sauces. It also recommends finishing the dressed pasta in the skillet with a little oil. Those size comparisons describe its product, rather than a measurement shared by every pasta maker.
