I
n Italy the emphasis on regional cooking contributes to the confusion in naming dishes. Many dishes have regional variations in ingredients as well as in name and pasta is no exception.
The noodle we know as spaghettini is variously known as tagliolini (in Florence), trenette (in Genoa) & tonarelli (in Rome). You can see how it gets confusing. Below are the names we use.

Drop fresh pasta into a large pot of boiling, salted water.
Return to the boil:

Fresh pasta is best served dripping with a little of its own cooking water rather than thoroughly drained.
