Subject: Quarantine Cuisine - Pasta Poll

Written By: LyricBoy on 05/21/20 at 5:15 pm

With millions of people in quarantine or stay-at-home, pasta consumption has gone through the roof. What’s your favorite pasta cut? ???

Call me a normie, but I'm going for squiggly spaghetti.

I don’t care about the shape, and I don’t even know what some of them are. But I say shells because to me it means shells and cheese.

My daughter used to love wheels and cheese. I tried it once and didn’t like it. So my joke to her was that it tasted like tires.

We either use penne or fusilli. Can’t remember the last time I cooked proper spaghetti

My far the best would be rotini to me. But bow ties and spaghetti are great as well.

Worst type is shells which are not practical to eat on the go and most brands I've tried leave a bland aftertaste.

The only problem with wagon wheels (and there's ONLY one problem with wagon wheels) is that they take too long to cook, compared to other pastas. The same with rigatoni, another pasta I love.

Oh yes! But also rice noodles like Thai drunken noodles and stuff. I’ve been using the quarantine as an opportunity to sharpen my culinary skills.

Yes I believe so, the ones she bought before were from the supermarket.

For dinner yesterday I had spaghetti with meat sauce with the meat crumbled right in.  (Sometimes will do meatballs instead.)  I occasionally make sauce from scratch but my "everyday fare" is to buy organic sauce from the store, stretch with plain organic tomato sauce, add veggies (peppers, onion, garlic, maybe mushrooms) and drained cooked beef, then throw in more spices until it tastes fabulous.  :D

That sounds delicious! I like making pasta with a large amount of different types of vegetables, usually peppers, onion, mushrooms, olives, etc., combined with many spices.

What kind of sauce is it? From The can or did you make it from scratch?

Many herbal sauces can be used,
For the spaghetti in the pot,
But the major question to be asked,
Are your meatballs spicy or not?

Seeking inspiration,
Was a struggle for me,
So I look into Google,
To see what there could be.

Lasagna for breakfast
With other foods for taken,
There's a much simpler choice,
For it's normally egg and bacon.
