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.[1]

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.[2]
