Gemelli (Italian: [dʒeˈmɛlli]; lit.

It is most often used for making casserole or pasta salads.

[2] Gemelli are not twin tubes twisted around one another, as they may appear to be, but rather a single s-shaped strand twisted into a spiral.

The strips are glued together to form a single piece of dough, similar to fusilli.
