Paid Members gmoney Posted March 14, 2020 Paid Members Posted March 14, 2020 Penne rigate, partly because I like to sing it to the Edith Paif song 'Je en regrette rein' Quote

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. Shells trap sauce. If yours trap water you ain’t draining it right Quote

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?" https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/howto/guide/perfect-pairings-how-match-pasta-shapes-sauces By different sauces do you mean different kinds of red sauce? In that case you're a wrong 'un Onyx. There's no chance I'm putting any Daddie's, French's, Tesco's own or some kind of reduced sugar version anywhere near my pasta. Regular Heinz and that's it. It sits the same on all the shapes, no fucking about. There's no better way to eliminate the shite pasta. Quote

Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted March 14, 2020 Awards Moderator Posted March 14, 2020 I allowed my other half to vote on this poll for me. She chose the bowties “for the novelty”. I would have chosen spaghetti. Quote

Posted March 14, 2020 Paid Members Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) 2 hours ago, HarmonicGenerator said: I would have chosen spaghetti If we are going long, stringy fork twiddling pasta it's tagliatelle all the way, which is way better than spegetti. If it's anything else I'll always go penne, because shells are shit, spirals don't retain enough sauce and bowties are for nonces with tiny willys. Edit: and while we are at it, it's long, stringy fork twiddling pasta for cream sauce, small shapes (penne) for red sauce. Bow ties for both if you are a nonce with a button mushroom, as per my previous comment. Edited March 14, 2020 by Tommy! Quote
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted March 14, 2020 Paid Members Posted March 14, 2020 Lasagna is the best shape. Quote
Paid Members stumobir Posted March 14, 2020 Paid Members Posted March 14, 2020 Fusilli and farfalle are for Tories and nonces, all other pasta is great but as Tommy said, it depends what it’s going with. Carbonara is my go-to 10 minute dinner, that has to be with spaghetti. Quote
Steve Justice Posted March 14, 2020 Posted March 14, 2020 It's obviously the twisty ones, fusilli bastards. Quote
Paid Members PunkStep Posted March 14, 2020 Paid Members Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) @stumobir You say tories like farfalle and fusili, yet you choose a Jacob Rees-Mogg shaped pasta in spaghetti? Edited March 14, 2020 by PunkStep Quote
