    Trofie are typically much much smaller than the ones you have made here. These are just on a 4x scale.

    Those look quite thick. I’m still working on getting the shape right, trying a few with the tail end of any semolina dough I make, and the learning curve is pretty steep. What I have found is that they have to be much smaller than I anticipated, and that the smaller pieces are much more inclined to be shaped in the right way.
