Pasta: There are so many types.
How to pick the right one for your dish
Believe it or not, there are over 500 pasta shapes in Italy.
That’s a lot of pasta! Though there aren’t nearly as many types of
pasta in the aisles of your local grocery store, choosing the right cut
for your dish can be a difficult task. We want to help.
In general, the larger pasta shapes with hollows and sauce-hugging
curves are best suited for thicker, heartier sauces, while thinner and
more delicate strands are used for light oil-based or cream sauces. Some
cuts, however, are regional and paired with a certain sauce or dish by tradition.
