Favorite pasta shape

[Anonymous No.12290191]

For me, it's trennette.

[Anonymous No.12290200]

For me it's shells. They never have disappointing fillings or leave sauce on your mouth.

>>12290191
WTF I have never seen those before.

My favourite shape are rotini - easy to cook uniformly, easy to stab with your fork (unlike penne), they hold a lot of sauce and still they are substantial enough that a fork with three or four makes an actual mouthful.

farfalle, I like the very middle being a little bit firmer.

I prefer short pasta in general, and I always use fusilli whenever I make bolognese.

Spaghetti.

It's fun to twirl around a fork.

[Anonymous No.12291173]

For me, it is rigatoni, the superior penne.

[Anonymous No.12291219]

I like penne, not sure why. I get the rotini holds more sauce but i dont like it saturated with sauce and i dont like the texture as much.

What's the point of the rotelle?

[Anonymous No.12291353]

>>12290661
Is it supposed to be like that? I'm not complaining since it's my favorite too, but I feel like I'm cooking it wrong every time because it always comes out that way.

[Anonymous No.12291366]

My number 1 is bucatini. By like, a wide margin. Number 2 is a tie between cavatappi and radiatore. Number 3 is penne so that''s usually what I'm having because most grocery stores don't have the others.

I've never heard of trenette but they look delectable

None because pasta is gross

[Anonymous No.12292163]

In my country (USA) pasta is shipped in poorly sealed cardboard boxes, and sits on supermarket shelves long enough that it'll probably be infested with bugs by the time you cook it. So I avoid the shapes with holes, folds, etc., because they can't be easily inspected.

Nah that's pretty much the appeal of them, i eat pasta like every goddamn day, either as breakfast, lunch or dinner.

I have found out some great secrets of pasta and that of farfalle being that putting grated gouda cheese on them and then scooping them up is a amazing experience. The cheese sticks them together and you can simply scoop up a massive spoonful of those buggers.

My two favourites for almost everything, and my local supermarket sells both in bulk. Love that shit.

[Anonymous No.12292327]

These are shit. They cook unevenly and don't hold sauce well.

[Anonymous No.12292473]

>>12290191
100% depends on the dish/sauce, but in general I really like campanelle (they're a bitch to make though). The true god tier of pasta is filled shapes though, like capeletti (essentially tortellini shaped from a square piece of dough rather than a circle, giving them a distinct 'peak' on one side)

[Anonymous No.12292488]

For me, its tortellini. The best pasta shape.

Since this is about pasta how do you get fettuccine to stop sticking together?

In the pot? More water. A gallon per pound of dry pasta. When making it fresh? Dust with flour.

Radiatore

[Anonymous No.12294233]

>>12293536
Pretty much all filled shapes, and many other shapes (orecchiette, campanelle, many others) can be made by hand. The ones that need a die extruder are ridiculous though, those machines are SO fucking expensive.
