What are your favourite types of pasta? 🍝

[Kaleen]

That looks more like a type of conchiglie to me.

 

[Zu]

Well it SAYS GNOCCHI ON THE BOX

Am very bewildered by the realisation that TWO THINGS are called gnocchi, I must say

So you know better than Barilla?

 

[Ich Carniva-la-la-la]

It’s bottom queens like DC and the likes that mention holes because they think it makes me them sound like tops

Fucking hell I had nothing to do with the HOLE chat!

 

[Zu]

So you know better than Barilla?

I would never doubt Mr Barilla. Not only does he have a fat hairy arse but produces quality fayre at competitive prices

 

[Zu]

HARSH!

Well I’M NOT FOOLED!

because THERE ARE NOT! They've just branded it GNOCCHI for the sake of shameless CAPITALISM because there are enough people / uncultured swine who don't QUESTION THINGS in this life to turn an easy profit on something that is evidently NOT Gnocchi

I'm quite the fan of SPÄTZLE recently. Although I'm probably doing it a disservice by using it in Italian inspired dishes rather than doing something a bit more GERMAN with it.

 

[Roe-st Potato 🥔 🌳]

I don't mind wholewheat pasta if it's drenched in pesto.

 

[Nancy]

I like pasta with marmite and a plant based butter alternative

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

SOMEONE PLEASE BAN NANCY

 

[lolly]

Marmite butter on pasta IS delicious

 

[Eddie]

Loads missing @Jark.

My favourite ever is probably Orecchiette. It is the perfect pasta for most occasions. Trofie is the best for pesto too.

Of that list I think Pappardelle, Rigatoni or Linguine are my most common gotos. Pappardelle is essential with a ragu.

I’m afraid I simply cannot believe such things about Mr Barilla. Not only does he have a fat hairy arse, but he packages his quality fayre in beautiful boxes and is famously not fond of untruths

 

[Eddie]

Rigatoni is SO much better than Penne if you want tubular action.

 

[Eddie]

Oh and Bucatini FTW with long pastas.

 

[big ron]

orecchiette

and most other kinds.

JUSTICE FOR ORECCHIETTE

 

[Zu]

Penne is indeed WRONG WRONG WRONG

 

[Zu]

Also it reminds me of PEEN, which I always thought was ridiculous

 

[big ron]

I like pasta with marmite and a plant based butter alternative

SOMEONE PLEASE BAN NANCY

Warning given.

 

[Eddie]

Ooh @Barnacle. I didn't notice you had already given Orecchiette some love!

Like like like!'!

 

[Nancy]

SOMEONE PLEASE BAN NANCY

I got an official warning

 

[lolly]

What's the one in like 3 inch long slight twists? I like that one.

 

[Eddie]

I got an official warning

About time!

 

[Zu]

I must say that I do prefer pasta in BOXES and don’t mind paying a bit more for the pleasure, especially if they contain quality goods such as those manufactured by Mr Barilla

Plastic is SO VERY VERY COMMON

 

[Nancy]

I’M AN UNAPOLOGETIC BITCH

They look so much nicer in the LARDER as well

 

[Zu]

Are they the TURNY ones?

 

[Eddie]

De Cecco really is the best "high street" brand of dried pasta. Barilla if there isn't that.

 

[Zu]

Are they the TURNY ones?

Oh yes, they are. You said SLIGHT TWISTS

NO IDEA LUV

 

[lolly]

Are they the TURNY ones?

STROZZAPRETI apparently

 

[Eddie]

Ooh. Should we post PANTRY PORN?

I have a rather nice one.

 

[Ha-lucy-nation]

Oh Zu wasn’t wrong about MR BARILLA

 

[lolly]

Oh yes, they are. You said SLIGHT TWISTS

NO IDEA LUV

Imagine how lovely that would look in your pantry

 

[Zu]

Oh Zu wasn’t wrong about MR BARILLA

Chipolata fingers! NASTY HAIR THOUGH

 

[Eddie]

Imagine how lovely that would look in your pantry

That's a POOR MAN'S Trofie.

 

[lolly]

That's a POOR MAN'S Trofie.

Trofie doesn't hold the sauce in the same way though.

 

[Eddie]

I was serious about posting pantry pictures btw.
