Rhonda Vilardo, co-owner of Tuscan Women Cook, makes pici pasta, a thick Tuscan noodle made by hand from eggs and flour only. Unique to Tuscany, pici was the original cucina povera pasta and a staple for Tuscan peasants. This recipe is typical of those taught during the week-long, hands-on total cooking immersion program offered by Tuscan Women Cook every spring and fall in Montefollonico Italy.
