Gemelli [dʒeˈmɛlli] are a type of pasta. The name derives from the Italian word for "twins".
Gemeli are not separate pieces of pasta. 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.Gemelli means twins.
Gemelli are also called unicorn horns.[citation needed]
