After that, you will taste the not-to-be-missed Pici. Pici is a traditional Tuscan pasta made by hand-rolling thick, rustic strands of dough, resembling a thicker version of spaghetti; often served with hearty sauces, such as meat ragu or simple olive oil, garlic, and cheese. Its chewy texture and ability to absorb rich sauces make it a beloved dish in Tuscan cuisine.
