Q. What pastas do you love to use? When it’s not made fresh. Is there a pasta company doing a great job?
A. Latini Pasta – … Pasta Latini. It’s cut through brass dies and this makes a HUGE difference as to how the pasta tastes and with the sauce, and what happens in the pan when you put it together with the sauces. Once you have that, it’s going to be hard to go to your old standbys, because that is really unique, really beautiful pasta.
CAPITO?
I know Latini is a great pasta. But I also have to urge people to try your Faella pasta, from Campania. I’ve been using it now for several months and find that it really has a very distingctive taste and texture unlike any other. It’s become my pasta of choice. But, Latini is still good to have around as it has more shapes, and the wonderful farro pasta.
grazie Scott! i’ll post your comment on facebook, too! Sergio Faella will love it! i just talked to him yesterday, he will come to America soon. i will make sure you meet him. ciao!

grazie beatrice! pasta faella and pasta latini are the best in the world!
Chefs really prefer unique tastes! She has that trait. I think that a large variety of pasta have been made since then, and all of them have unique tastes that everyone can enjoy. I believe pastas will never be gone in every chef’s list of recipes. 🙂
