'''Stelline''' is a type of [[pasta]] that is shaped like small stars. It is a traditional Italian pasta that is often used in soups and broths due to its small size and delicate shape.

	== ~~Production~~ ==		==Description==
			Stelline pasta is characterized by its star-like shape, which is typically small and uniform. The name "stelline" comes from the Italian word "stella," meaning "star." This pasta is usually made from [[semolina]] flour and water, like many other types of Italian pasta.

	Stelline is ~~made from a simple dough of~~ [[~~wheat flour~~]] and ~~water~~. ~~The dough~~ is ~~rolled out~~ and ~~then cut into small, star~~-~~shaped pieces~~. ~~Some manufacturers~~ also ~~produce stelline using~~ a ~~bronze die, which gives the pasta a rough texture that helps it to hold sauce better~~.		==Culinary Uses==
			Stelline is commonly used in [[soups]] and [[broths]], where its small size allows it to cook quickly and evenly. It is particularly popular in [[minestrone]] and other vegetable-based soups. Due to its shape, stelline is also a favorite among children and is often included in meals designed for young eaters.

	== ~~Usage~~ ==		==Preparation==
			Stelline pasta is typically boiled in salted water until it reaches an al dente texture. The cooking time is relatively short due to the small size of the pasta. Once cooked, it can be added directly to soups or served with a light [[sauce]].

	Stelline is most commonly used in soups, such as minestrone or [[chicken soup]]. It can also be used in pasta salads or served with a simple sauce. Due to its small size, stelline cooks quickly and is therefore a popular choice for quick meals.		==Cultural Significance==
			In Italian cuisine, stelline is often associated with comfort food, particularly in the context of home-cooked meals. Its use in soups makes it a staple in many Italian households, especially during the colder months.
	== ~~Nutritional Value~~ ==

	~~Like all pasta~~, stelline is ~~high~~ in ~~[[carbohydrates]]~~. ~~It also contains~~ a ~~small amount of protein and is low~~ in ~~fat. The nutritional value can vary depending on whether~~ the ~~pasta is made from refined or whole grain flour~~.
