Italian Spaghetti Recipes


Italian Spaghetti Sauces

spaghettiThick spaghetti pasta type are long and rounded, they are the oldest and one of the best known shape of pasta, the most extensively used.

They go well with any kind of sauce, traditionally served with a Tomato Pasta Sauce or with a Ragł Spaghetti Sauce. The thinner Spaghettini are particularly well suited to delicate sauces more than the thicker size.

Gourmet Artisan Spaghetti

Today many gourmet spaghetti are available and one good alternative is a Italian farro spaghetti. Farro is an ancient grain and pasta made with 100% farro flour is more easily digested than common dried pasta and its flavor is superior.

Alternatively gluten-free spaghetti made with maize flour. This flour is used to make polenta in northern Italy cuisine.

Anyway, I recommend you Italian artisan pasta makers if you really want to get the best taste from these particular types of spaghetti.

Funny But Real...

If you are at any corner of the world and you ask at any person what recalls at their mind thinking about Italy, well S/he will most probably and immediately answer you with a large smile: "Spaghetti!"

When it comes to how to cook perfect spaghetti I absolutely never break them before being tossed into the pot, and sure with thicker ones you have a bite more "al dente", to the tooth, slightly tender.

Did you know that they were even been made in many memorable old movies?

I say: "Spaghetti & Stars".

The proper way to eat them is to take a few aside just rolling. The spoon shouldn't be used, just twirl with the fork alone and finally slurping spaghetti is never proper.
