Kimball Spaghetti / Fettucine / Angel Hair / Macaroni 400g

Details: Spaghetti is a long, thin, cylindrical pasta. It's made from durum wheat semolina and is one of the most recognized pasta shapes.

Usage: It pairs well with a variety of sauces, including tomato-based (marinara, Bolognese), creamy (carbonara), and olive oil-based (aglio e olio). It's also commonly used in pasta dishes with vegetables, seafood, or meat.

2. Fettucine

Details: Fettucine is flat, ribbon-like pasta that is slightly wider than linguine but narrower than pappardelle. It’s typically made from egg and flour, giving it a richer taste and slightly softer texture compared to other pasta types.

Usage: It's famously paired with creamy sauces like Alfredo or carbonara. The broad surface area makes it ideal for clinging to rich, creamy sauces. Fettucine is also used in dishes with mushrooms, chicken, or seafood.

3. Angel Hair (Capelli d'Angelo)

Details: Angel hair is extremely thin and delicate pasta. It’s often made from durum wheat and has a very light texture.

Usage: Due to its delicate nature, it works best with light sauces or broths, such as a simple tomato sauce, a light olive oil dressing, or a garlic and herb sauce. It’s also often used in soups or served with seafood. Angel hair can become mushy if overcooked, so it's important to cook it just until al dente.

4. Macaroni

Details: Macaroni is a small, elbow-shaped pasta. It’s usually made from durum wheat and is often available in various sizes, but the small elbow shape is most common.

Usage: It’s best known for its role in macaroni and cheese, where its shape holds onto cheese sauce well. Macaroni is also used in pasta salads, casseroles, and baked dishes. It’s versatile and can be incorporated into a range of dishes, including soups and stews.

In Summary:

Spaghetti: Versatile and great with various sauces.

Fettucine: Ideal for creamy sauces and richer dishes.

Angel Hair: Best with light sauces or in soups due to its delicate texture.
