Busiate or busiati are a type of long macaroni, originating in the province of Trapani and typical of the Calabria and Sicily regions of Italy. They take their name from busa, the Sicilian word for the stem of Ampelodesmos mauritanicus, a local grass, which is used in preparing them and giving them their helical shape.
