As pasta found its origin from the lands of Italy, the Italians know the best about pasta. It’s time we learned from them given our undying love for pasta. You must have noticed on visiting an Italian restaurant, they offer different sized fork for differently shaped pasta. Did you ever wonder why? Well, there is always ‘the right way’ and the wrong way of eating various pasta dishes. Especially with those long strands like spaghetti, fettuccine, angel hair etc.
Spaghetti is one pasta that is loved and preferred by all. It’s comforting, gracious and easy to handle. If paired with the right sauce, it’s a dish of winners. The popularity of spaghetti in markets like India etc. have increased so much that spaghetti manufacturers in India like Gustora Foods are expanding from their original capacity to meet the increased demand. With increasing popularity, it’s time we had it the right way. Just how the Italians do. Right?
Steps to Eat Spaghetti like a Pro
1. Firstly, Pair your spaghetti with the right sauce:
While we know the versatility of pasta allows it to be paired with various sauces and ingredients however the fun lies in understanding the texture of each and pairing it with ingredients that best complement each other. For example with instant pasta like spaghetti, linguine etc. it is important that the sauce coats the pasta well. In such cases, chunkier sauces won’t work well. Pair your noodle with creamier sauces for better coating and enhanced flavour.
2. Get that fork out of the drawer:
Forget the etiquette, it’s almost impossible to handle those long stubborn strands of noodle with a spoon. It is easy to twirl spaghetti between the legs of the fork rather than with a spoon.
3. Twirl the noodle around the fork:
This step involves the use of a spoon. Yes, you heard me right? In order to perfectly twirl the spaghetti around the fork, you will need a spoon in another hand. While a knife can do the same job but with a spoon, you can add a dollop of sauce over the twirled noodle. Maneuvering the strands is not easy, however, the trick is to separate a few strands from the rest and twirling the separated ones.
4. Try not to cut your spaghetti:
Cutting the long strands that are difficult to incorporate seem like an easy option but technically it’s wrong. You wouldn’t want to do it among Italians! Twirl the strands until properly covered in a fork and rejoice the joy!
Well, now you are truly a spaghetti expert. Follow these steps to conquer the art of eating noodles. So what are you waiting for? Grab a fork in hand, boil some Gustora’s spaghetti, and prepare a sauce and here are you? Doing the right thing, the right way!
