Morgan Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Seeing as it’s a bit of a food thread day. Favourite pasta? Not the sauce, just the pasta shape. My top five are Penne, Rigatoni, Tagliatelle, Bucatini and good old Spaghetti. Add your favourites sauces too though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milky_26 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 would probably go with tagliatelle as it can mop up lots of whatever sauce you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GinRummy Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 (edited) It’s linguine or spaghetti for me, way better than your more compact pasta shapes. edit: tagliatelle as well. Edited May 7, 2020 by GinRummy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cade Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Fusilli is great for holding a sauce. With spaghetti you tend to just get some wet, bare spaghetti then a bowl of sauce. Orzo is great in soups. Ravioli is never a bad shout. Two not-really-pasta-but-still-delicious-with-pasta-sauce things are Gnocchi and Gnudi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a couple of bags of tubes and swirls in the cupboard and some pasta sauces but they will probably be the last thing i go to during lockdown.
