Originally from the centre-north of Italy, the name Capellini means fine hair, or childrens hair. In fact they are also known as Angel Hair, for their delicate and elegant shape.  Capellini are best in light sauces, which suit their delicate shape. Barilla's Basilico sauce is perfect, or try them in broken in to broths as they will add texture and flavour to every recipe. Try pairing with one of our fresh sauces or our pasta sauce range for a nutritious and convenient meal. Cooks in 3 minutes
