Rotelle is a type of pasta resembling wheels with spokes. They are similar to fiori.
The name derives from the Italian word for a small wheel.[1] In Italy they are also called ruote, and in the US they are often called "wagon wheels".[2] They originated in 1900 in Italy, probably in Puglia. They have the advantage of maintaining their shape intact during cooking, without squashing.
