thumbnail|Maltagliati thumb|Pasta designs, including maltagliati Maltagliati (), also known as puntarine, are a type of pasta typical of the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy. In the manufacture of pasta such as tagliatelle, dough is rolled and then cut into thin strips, producing noodles. The excess parts of the dough, generally the edges, are left with irregular shape and thickness, therefore "poorly cut" or, in Italian, maltagliati. Maltagliati are therefore cut from such scrap pieces of pasta, and differ in shape, size and thickness.
