Here you will find many recipes and tips on how to cook spaghetti, one
of the most famous Italian dishes in the world !!!!!!
Spaghetti is a long, thin, cylindrical pasta of Italian origin. A
variety of pasta dishes are based on it, from spaghetti with cheese and
pepper or garlic and oil to a spaghetti with tomato, meat, and other
sauces. Spaghetti is made of semolina and water.
Legend has it that Cicero, the famous Roman orator was fond of laganum,
an ancient tagliatelle.
The popularity of pasta spread to the whole of Italy after the
establishment of pasta factories in the 19th century, enabling the mass
production of pasta for the Italian market.
An emblem of Italian cuisine, spaghetti is frequently served with tomato
sauce, which may contain various herbs (especially oregano and basil),
olive oil, meat, or vegetables. Other spaghetti preparations include
using Bolognese sauce, carbonara, and chili. Grated hard cheeses, such
as Pecorino Romano, Parmesan, and Asiago cheese, are often added.
The manner of eating spaghetti varies according to local customs, but it
is usually eaten with a fork, as with most other Continental dishes.
Eating spaghetti with a fork and a spoon is considered perfectly polite
in parts of the United States, although this method is widely disparaged
by some.
Though the traditional method of eating spaghetti in Italy is to use
just a fork and twist it so that the spaghetti wraps around the fork,
families around the world still consider it a sentimental pastime to
take the end of a noodle and slurp it up.
