Type of pasta

Image credit is listed at the end of this article.

Sedani is a type of pasta slightly larger than macaroni, with a similar slight bend. They can be smooth (lisce) or furrowed (rigati).

Initially named zanne d'elefante (lit.'elephant tusks'), they were renamed sedani (from sedano, meaning 'celery') after the trade of ivory was banned.
