Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted March 13, 2020 Moderators Posted March 13, 2020 No filled pasta here. If it want to mention some other wanky shape that's not on the list feel free. Quote
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted March 13, 2020 Author Moderators Posted March 13, 2020 That's not a shape. I'll take that as a vote for not-bowties though anyway. Quote
Rey_Piste Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 I think we can all agree that anyone who votes for bow ties is a nonce. Rigatoni is the best shape. Quote

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted March 13, 2020 Author Moderators Posted March 13, 2020 (edited) Thanks for that image. It is interesting and informative. Â I think the only way you could be more wrong than eating bowtie pasta would be if you just eat whole sheets of lasagne dipped in sauce. Actually, I think I might still prefer that.

Paid Members WeeAl Posted March 13, 2020 Paid Members Posted March 13, 2020 (edited) Spiral pasta is the only one worth bothering with. Bow tie is shite with the wee hard bit. You have to chase the shell one around the plate with a fork which makes it annoying but at least it's soft. Spaghetti and tagliatelle are good but can make you look like a three year old very quickly. Spirals have no weaknesses. Edited March 13, 2020 by WeeAl Moved from the other thread Quote

Awards Moderator Frankie Crisp Posted March 13, 2020 Awards Moderator Posted March 13, 2020 Action Man bow-tie. Quote
Paid Members PunkStep Posted March 13, 2020 Paid Members Posted March 13, 2020 You're all wrong. Shells are shit as they trap water. Fusili is dull. Penne has a mind of its own and slips all over the place.  It's bow tie. Just like the neckwear worn by Daniel Craig when he portrays Bond better than anyone. Quote
Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted March 13, 2020 Awards Moderator Posted March 13, 2020 Classic heathen British missing the point question. Different shape pastas exist to carry different texture sauces. You want the sauce to get caught in the shape, cling to it or slip around it as the dish deserves. You might as well ask "which cutlery is best?"Â https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/howto/guide/perfect-pairings-how-match-pasta-shapes-sauces Quote
