Do you have a favorite kind of pasta?
I'm not talking sauce, I'm talking the actual pasta? Do you prefer spaghetti, linguine, or fettuccine? Or do you prefer rigatoni or penne? What do you like?
It often depends on the sauce for me, but I've decided over the past year or so that spaghetti isn't what you should serve with meat sauce. Rigatoni all the way, and I find myself using rigatoni almost exclusively. Also, do you have a favorite brand of dried pasta? I recently found La Molisana (an Italian import) at my po-dunk Winn Dixie and gave it a shot. It's by far my favorite; I highly recommend it if you can find it. http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B...=AKAQCURF3N5K5 |

A basic red sauce is really easy to make.
Tomato paste Tomato puree crushed fresh garlic basil oregano salt water Meat (optional) Brown meat with olive oil in the bottom of a stock pot unless you are doing seafood. Add tomato puree and water on a one to one can basis. Add 1 can of tomato paste for every two cans of puree. Add salt, garlic, basil, and oregano to taste. Bring to simmer and cook to desired thickness stirring occasionally. The sauce will really take on the flavor of the meat. Crab and squid will be sweeter while sausage, meatballs, or simply ground meat will give a richer meaty taste. |

My three favorite pastas
1. Bucatini- with sun dried tomatoes, roasted garlic, broccoli crowns, sauteed chicken breast in a white wine sauce 2. Orecchiette- with sausage, broccoli rabe and sauteed garlic with red pepper flakes 3. Tagliatelle-with a hearty bolognese sauce and a nice loaf of crunchy italian bread w oil to dip the bread The only pasta I'm NOT a big fan of is Angel Hair as I've NEVER had it cooked right even in high end italian restaurants, always mushy
