Spaghetti
The best known and most popular pasta in the world. The word itself means
'little strings' in Italian. Its sturdy texture makes spaghetti well-suited
to a wide variety of sauces. Particularly seafood sauces as well as olive oil
and tomato-based sauces.
Gnocchi
The genuine Italian gnocchi are potato dumplings. To create great tasting
gnocchi, you choose floury potatoes with a low moisture content, but most
importantly the consistency of the dough should always be soft and light.
This type of pasta goes particularly well with cream-based or pesto sauces.
Ravioli
This well-known pasta dumpling is shaped into delicate pillows. Square in
shape, they are filled with savory veal, a touch of nutmeg and grated
parmesan cheese. Tiny parcels of pasta bursting with the flavors that evoke
the authentic Italian recipe.
Linguine
Linguine means little tongues in Italian. Like its other long pasta
variants, the flavour of this pasta is best complimented by a variety of
tomato and cream-based sauces. And further enhanced by a dash of seasoned
herbs.
Spiralli
These are spring-shaped lengths of pasta, also known as Twisted Spaghetti.
This type of pasta goes well with chunky sauces.
Fettuccine
This is what we call ribbon pasta and fettuccine is probably the most
widely recognized of its type. It is at its best when rolled out by hand,
resulting in delicate textured, porous pasta that absorbs the rich flavors of
cream-based sauces like no other.
