Linguine is a type of pasta that is long, flat, and narrow, similar to spaghetti but wider. It originated in Italy and is traditionally made from durum wheat semolina. Linguine has a smooth texture and is known for its versatility in various pasta dishes. It pairs well with a variety of sauces, both creamy and tomato-based. Linguine is often used in seafood pasta dishes, where it can hold up well to the flavors of shrimp, clams, or other seafood. It can also be used in vegetarian or meat-based pasta recipes.
