WHICH PASTA WORKS BETTER FOR YOUR COOKING STYLE
Simple, fast and delicious, pastas aren’t just an ideal option for the weekend but also serves as a perfect go-to meal for weeknights. If you’ve been preparing the same type of pasta for the longest time, here are some tips and tricks on the art of pairing pastas based on the strands and shapes with various, great tasting styles and flavours.
SPAGHETTI
OR LINGUINE
These pastas work well with olive-oil sauces such as aglio e olio as well as cream or tomato based sauces that easily slip along the surface.
MACARONI
OR PENNE
While the tube shaped Macaroni go well with chunky tomato-based sauces with or without meat, or with cheese and even cream, the Penne on the other hand works better with meat and tomato sauces as well as cream.
FUSILLI
This pasta is perfect in salads and stands up perfectly to thicker sauces – chunky tomato sauces and Bolognese.
