Spaghetti 🍝

Spaghetti comes from the word Spago, which translates in English to “string,” or “twine.” In Italy, spaghetti are generally cooked just to al dente which mean it is not too socky, to create a slightly chewy texture, rather than an overly soft consistency. 

Different shaped and weighted pastas carry a unique taste because each one tends to handle a multitude of alternate sauce types. The pasta texture, and the particular sauce, greatly influence the culinary experience—even if it appears, on the surface, the only difference is the shape.
