Eppicotispai Chitarra (pronounced key-tahr-rah) is a pasta maker believed to have been invented in Chieti, Abruzzo region in central Italy around the 1800's.Meaning 'guitar,' a chitarra looks like a double-sided harp, with strings set close on one side, farther on the other. In then center of the device is a slanted board, designed to allow the cut pasta to slide off easily once it's been cut by the strings. Simply use a rolling pin, flattening and pressing the dough through the wires.
