Ziti (Italian: [ˈdziːti]) or zite (Italian: [ˈdziːte]) are a shape of extruded pasta originating from the Italian regions of Campania and Sicily.[1][2] They are shaped into long, wide tubes, about 25 cm (9.8 inches) long, that need to be broken by hand into smaller pieces before cooking. Ziti have similarities to bucatini, but are much thicker.
