Bigoli in salsa is a Venetian pasta dish made with whole-wheat bigoli pasta, onion and salt-cured fish. While today usually anchovy is used, in earlier days it was often prepared with sardines. It is considered one of the signature dishes of Venice.
In Castel d'Ario, in the province of Mantua, on the first day of Lent, the "Bigolada" is held, a square party where dishes of "bigoi con le sardelle" are served.
