Eppicotispai 2009/CM Large Pasta Cutter for Adults, Brown

The Eppicotispai Chitarra, pronounced key-tahr-rah, is a traditional pasta maker that traces its origins back to the 1800s in Chieti, a town located in the Abruzzo region of central Italy. The term "chitarra" translates to "guitar" in English, aptly reflecting the tool's unique design, which resembles a double-sided harp. On one side, the strings are positioned closely together, while they are spaced further apart on the other.

At the heart of the chitarra is a slanted board, expertly crafted to facilitate the smooth release of cut pasta. This clever design ensures that once the pasta is sliced by the strings, it slides off with ease. To use the chitarra, one simply employs a rolling pin to shape the dough, pressing it through the wires to achieve perfectly shaped noodles.

This artisanal tool is crafted entirely from natural wood, embodying the authentic spirit of Italian pasta-making. Its design enables it to produce a cutting style akin to that of a kitchen guitar, delivering an exquisite texture that elevates any dish. Each chitarra is 100% made in Italy, reflecting the rich culinary heritage and craftsmanship for which the country is renowned.

The Eppicotispai Chitarra not only represents a tool for making pasta but also serves as a connection to Italy's rich gastronomic culture and history.
