About to insult all of Italy - Spaghetti.
Inconvenient to eat and doesn't hold the sauce well.
Italians would say it's a skill issue 😛 In truth is likely wrong sauce or too liquid perhaps not the right consistency.
All you spaghetti haters in this post need to get bronze die cut pasta. Modern machines produce pasta that's too smooth so sauce doesn't stick. The old school extruders/cutters leave a tiny surface texture that allows sauce to cling on!
Look at mr bourgeoisie over here with his artisan food.
The judges would have accepted Dietalini, Bowtie-eater, Gnot Poor, Pastafarian or Many Penne.
Ah, yes, understanding where capitalism has produced a worse quality, minimally viable product that makes people a little sad but not enough to effect profit margins enough to change, is clearly due to class divide and not the estrangement of the general population from the products of their labor.
Also that's Ms. Bourgeoisie to you
just use plain elbows in a bowl, really get 'em worked up.
Give me all the inconvenient food. I at least want to be entertained when I eat. If I wanted the most efficient way to eat I'd just drink Soylent 24/7.
I like linguine. It gives the sauce traction.
Spaghetti is perfect for carbonara, most other sauces not so much.
I feel the same way. But I have been informed this is because most Itallian American dishes are not the right sauces for spaghetti. And its not bronze cut.
My mother (I love her so very much) makes this wonderful sauce and amazing meatballs whenever we get together… but she uses Angel Hair (which I like) and RINSES THE NOODLES BEFORE SERVING. Doesn’t finish the noodles in the sauce, just rinses the shit out of of em and plops the sauce on top, which all falls to the bottom of the plate.
When I make pasta, I use the squiggliest noodles I can find (Radiatore?) and finish the pasta with some pasta water and pasta sauce.
I miss spaghetti but I’ll never eat it in public. Yeah I know all the ways you can do it without looking like a slob, but I don’t want to still be scooping around that shit 40 minutes after everyone else finished eating.
I much prefer spaghettini
