Your pasta looks kind of cheap. The sauce looks nicely thickened and the shrimp doesn't look overcooked. You get a shrimp/pasta.

>>16719450
I spent $10 on a 1lb pack of hipster organic pasta

>>16719461
Well it doesn't look like it was bronze die extruded, so you got ripped off my guy. What brand did you get?

>>16719438
but why did you put shrimp with such a thick noodle? you are supposed to use the angel hair pasta to tempt out the light airy flavours of the seafeed

>>16719441
>oily sauce sliding off pasta
>dry, limp noodles
>visible garlic chunks
Shrimp might be decent. Get your shit together in regards to the actual pasta and sauce

>>16719469
de cecco. Have you heard of it?

>>16719483
De cecco is good pasta, but far from the best pasta. Not $10 dollars and not hipster.

Look up the brand seggiano. It's by far the best dry pasta I've had. Their jarred pasta sauce is also top tier.

>>16719469
This is the exact package I bought

>>16719438
I have those same faberware tongs.

>>16719497
but is de cecco shat out with bronze till it died?

>>16719441
I would eat it, but probably stop at taco bell after I leave your house and fuck your wife

>>16719514
OP here. I didn’t use dececco but I believe they use bronze dye.

>>16719500
I stand corrected. That looks like a pretty good pasta. Seggiano still looks better imo.

>>16719514
I checked and it is.

>>16719438
>>16719441
that looks lovely anon. i love me a good shremp pasta

>>16719438
Store bought noodles
>DISGUSTING

>>16719438
I've tried time and time again, but i can't enjoy shrimp. How do you people enjoy shrimp? Its just a big crunchy water insec and I find that very unappetizing.

>>16719640
>crunchy

You are probably overcooking it. It doesn’t need more than a minute of heat on each side.

>>16719438
looks good to me homie, i don't like my shit drowned in sauce

Cosmic brain take: Meat doesn't belong on pasta. Pasta happens before the entree thus shouldn't include any sort of meat.

>>16719568
>imagining spending hours making fresh noodles that are not even much better than store bought
it's all in your head lad, just buy the box.

Anyone ever get tired of pigs feet in Menudo. Sometimes I ask for none but they give anyway

>>16719438
Where's the gravy? 0/10, fuck you.

>>16719438
you mean spaghetti
plus your shrimps are overcooked man. they must be added in the end. If you like shrimps you should try zucchini and shrimps risotto or pasta.

>>16719438

From the pic it looks good. Sauce looks appropriately thick, noodles are nicely coated, shrimp looks properly cooked. Garlic is a bit big and looks a bit too raw, but hard to judge. You might have gone a bit hard on the chopped parsley.

Seems like a pretty good preparation of a basic pasta dish. I'd try it.

>>16719734

It doesn't take hours, but yea fresh pasta is a meme. There's nothing wrong with store-bought, and you'll get al dente much more easily starting with dried pasta rather than fresh egg pasta.

>>16719438
just a scampi right? I'd prolly eat the whole thing right out of the pan. sauce looks a little separated, might need some bread to clean it up. did you add more lemon juice at some point? smaller noodle like other anon said next time though. oh and some crispy bacon bits and black pepper... and scallops.

>>16719438
looks like shit and you're a fag. 1/25

>>16721162
cool now show us yours

>>16720631
It takes one hour more or less

>>16719640
>crunchy
you have to remove the shell

>>16723000
no

>>16719438

Can't taste pictures bro

>>16719480
Fuck angel hair pasta, that shit is garbage

>>16723598
no matter what you do it ends up clinging together in mushy clumps like wet dog hair

fuck that shit in it's stupid angel asshole

>>16719514
del cecco is probably the only regular supermarket pasta that's made using bronze dies

>>16723027
What the fuck for? Pasta is cheap carbs to extend meat. Sick of all these fucktard fetishists and attention seekers pretending they're unemployed asshats have hours to spend making 'lunch' on a weekday.

>>16719438
>>16719461
why not just make your own pasta from scratch? the shit is barney simple and way better

>>16723027

Mixing and kneading take 5-10 min. Rest 20 min while you prepare the rest of your ingredients. Roll through the machine, 5 mins. Pasta is ready.

It's 10-15 minutes of active work, 20 minutes wait time.

Making fresh pasta is no issue if your dish will actually benefit from it. The issue >>16723673
is you often want drier and harder water-based pasta to get that al dente texture, rather than fresh egg pasta that'll be softer and creamier.

I ate them in a pasta salad, I assume the restaurant removed the shells. I hope at least...

>>16719834

>>16723649
> take the ingredient, weight them
> mix and work the dough for at least 10 minutes
> cover, let it rest for 30 min
> shape the dough
> cut the dough

It takes 1h more or less, more if you are unexperineced. I wonder how shit your pasta is

>>16723710
> Rest 20 min
more like 30

> Making fresh pasta is no issue if your dish will actually benefit from it.
Not at all

>>16723710
>It's 10-15 minutes of active work
I'm not measuring energy dumbass, I measure time from the start of making a preparation to the finish. Time doesn't care if I am active or not

6/10 would eat.

>>16719438
Without recipe is hard to rate, but the concept of the recipe itself is just stupid
The only thing I can tell is that shrimps looks overcooked and maybe bought pre cooked without shells.
If that's the case, you should stop posting here

>>16723612
cook it less retard

>>16719640
Well we're not gay for one.

>>16719438
Recipe? I waa thinking of making some shrimp scampi
