Long egg pasta
Tajarin
Quick answer
Tajarin are very thin, golden Piedmontese egg noodles made with lots of yolks.
Tajarin means "Piedmontese for tagliolini" in Italian.
Best sauces: butter and sage, white truffle, meat sugo. Match the shape to the sauce — long thin pasta for oil and light sauces, tubes and ridges for chunky or meaty sauces, flat egg ribbons for rich ragù and butter.

Quick answer
Is sausage and peppers keto-friendly?
Yes, without the roll. A serving of one sausage link with peppers and onions is about 8 grams of net carbs — the peppers account for most of it. Skip the bread, go light on onion, and it drops to around 5 grams.
