The absolute worst pasta shape.

No, everybody loves farfalle. They are especially good al dente.
>>
>>21591265
Faggot, they are perfect with thicker sauces or for casseroles

ok more for me

No, no. She's right.

they cannot cook evenly because of the shape

Heaven

No, angel hair goes well with chicken piccata.
>>
>>21591265
butterflies are great, and others in this thread mentioned the reasons why already

for me though, im not the biggest fan of those mini macaronis like in the kraft mac in cheese. Maybe it works for kids cause they're smaller, but if I want something like mac and cheese (sorta rare), I prefer a bigger pasta
>>
>>21591427
I like angel hair with a heavy marinara sauce and eating it in massive noddly saucy globs
>>

that's not spaghettini

Press X to doubt.

Ding ding ding!

Call me when you wanna know the best shape.
>>
>>21591427
this is my favorite pasta but it only really works with oil/butter sauces i guess. is that why everyone hates it because they try putting on something that needs a heartier pasta? even then i don't really understand how anyone can hate it.
>>
>>21591770
I dislike capellini because it's too thin. Not sure how you missed that since it's the only distinguishing feature.
Unless I boil them myself I know for a fact it's going to be overdone every single time. There's not a single sauce that would make me prefer them to other strands pasta let alone other shapes so I never buy them.
>>
>>21591265
The worst pasta shape is every single linguine type long pasta. You can't shovel it and twisting it up makes a stupid fucking wad of pasta that squeezes out most of the sauce and sucks. Slurping it makes a fucking mess. I despise long pasta
>>
>>21591782
>Not sure how you missed that since it's the only distinguishing feature.
i didn't miss anything. i know it's a thin pasta. emphasizing that it's thinner than others doesn't explain why you dislike it. any pasta can be overcooked.

>>21591795
>twisting it up makes a stupid fucking wad of pasta that squeezes out most of the sauce
this is why i only really use these shapes for oil or butter sauces but for almost anything else i'd prefer another shape
>>
>>21591800
Because of the way smaller margin for error, can't you read?
Box pasta already suffer from this.
Fresh (egg) is blatantly better in flavor, texture and handling.
>>
>>21591800
Lemon butter sauce is the worst sauce.
>>
>>21591803
>Because of the way smaller margin for error
skill issue

>>21591805
i never tried making it with lemon for pasta, not sure if i'd really like that. it was usually just butter or oil with cheese, sometimes garlic/herbs/pepper depending on what i wanted. but i'd usually have a salad or steamed vegetables with lemon or vinegar on the side.

The small noodles are easy to swallow whole when you're just trying to get a bowl down when you're sick of eating it, but it's the most filling food you've been able to afford for weeks. My 20s were not fun.

what a strange comment. they're usually underdone in the center because it's thicker. would you want an undercooked baked potato that's still hard in the center, or boiled potatoes that are soggy and falling apart on the outside? that's what happens with this pasta shape.

the fuck did you just say
>>
>>21591991
this is the real answer, or in general any kind of ultra-thick noodle
takes eons to cook
due to the long cooking time, exterior is mush, while the center is barely cooked
doesn't wrap around a fork handily

I actually want to make Marie's sauce. I know it's not rugged home-cooked food, nor is it aw-ten-teek posta sauce, but I bet it's salty and simple and stains those noodles perfectly.

I just can't get canned Heinz or Contadina "sauce" in my country, and that whole bullshit of burning onions, garlic, and (what looks like canned??) basil is a bit whilde.

In any case, once she starts ladling that mess into that giant bowl it actually looks enjoyable, for what it is.
>>
>>21592708
Bucatini doesn't have a center, pal, it's a hollow tube. it's also the best version of long pasta, not that that's saying much.
>>
>>21592745
it was a bit unusual but the oddest thing was adding a ton of oil and then removing some of it later. you'd be better off just using less oil and sauteing the aromatics normally.

semantics, you know what i mean
>>
>>21592753
yeah, a lot of what she did was retarded but that was easily the retardemost thing of all.

fine, we all get busy and need to whip a meal together quickly especially for a family. all that is fine, but using literally 2 cups of oil to boil aromatics? what the actual fuck does she think shes doing?

also if I tried her recipe I would still use vegetable oil but a few tablespoons and just saute the shit and dump the infused oil in. wala.
>>
>>21592755
I really don't, since the fact that bucatini is hollow means that it cooks from both the outside and inside simultaneously, achieving a more uniform cook than many long noodles.

protip:immediately disregard any italian recipe that calls for any kind of oil except EVOO.

the only exception would be french fries, unless you want to spend 60 bucks on a portion. but fries aren't an italian recipe to begin with
>>
>>21591265
Farfelle and Rotini are my favorites. I like using them in a pasta salad of cherry tomatoes, pepperchinis, and olives as a base.

All about preference.
>>
>>21592588
You can make it slightly al dente in the center and normal in the other parts. To make a weak analogy that does argue my point: you wouldn't complain about a crème brûlée being hard on one side and soggy on the other, now would you?

>you wouldn't complain about a crème brûlée being hard on one side and soggy on the other, now would you?
i don't think that's a good comparison. that's intentional and the "hard" texture isn't unpleasant and a sign of being underdone. a better comparison would be if the custard wasn't cooked all the way so it was still overly runny in the center.

is any other pasta intentionally cooked like this? people complain with cooking spaghetti in small pots that it doesn't cook evenly. just seems strange for this one shape to seemingly get a pass in not cooking evenly.
