"Strozzapreti" is a pasta whose name translates as "priests chokers!" I had always assumed that to be their clerical collars.
Strozzapreti: this pasta, native from Emiglia Romagna means — literally- “priests chokers.” Apparently, the clergy of the past where very fond of this pasta, so much so, they would eat with such greedy gluttony, that they would choke on it.
