Gemelli (Italian: [dʒeˈmɛlli]; lit. 'twins'^[1]) are a type of pasta. It is most often used for making casserole or pasta salads.^[2]

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. The strips are glued together to form a single piece of dough, similar to fusilli.^[3]
