An Infographic to Test Your Pasta Knowledge

102612-pastashapes.jpgMy own personal knowledge of the different styles of Italian noodles tends towards the basic. Spaghetti, check. Lasagna, check. Macaroni, check. Funghini wait, what? Remember this pasta guide from earlier in the week? Well, here's another. This infographic is a great way to learn the ins and the outs of those crazy shapes. How well do you know your pasta?

The folks over at Charming Italy have made a giant (seriously) graphic of all sorts of different pasta. It works like many other infographics (and Choose Your Own Adventure books): you start with what you know and it guides you through the rest.

Dinner, Deconstructed: Lasagna Soup

2012_10_23-LasagnaSoup.jpgSometimes the best pasta happens without a recipe. Just the other day, I served chili over some freshly cooked pasta, and it was great! So, what happens when you love lasagna, but aren't quite up to the whole assembly process? Read on for your dinner plan!

Joanne at Eats Well With Others is responsible for this great tip. Ideal for those who are always wishing for more sauce, the "soup" in this dish is a chunky Bolognese (vegetarian, too!). Topped with a generous amount of cheese, the combined effect is that of a bite of lasagna: tomato sauce, pasta, creamy cheese together. We can't wait to try it!

Look! DIY Buckwheat Pasta

2012_10_20-buckwheat pasta.jpegBecause many folks aren't familiar with using buckwheat groats in their whole-grain form, buckwheat is often ground into its characteristically beautiful grey/brown flour and used in crepes or pancakes. But for a savory dinner option, how about pasta?

The great thing about buckwheat pasta is that it's gluten-free, so it's one way that folks who are watching their gluten can still enjoy a heaping bowl of pasta. And it has a really special, distinct flavor. Kasey Fleisher-Hickey of Turntable Kitchen describes it as "lovely speckled brown, nutritious and deliciously nutty" and suggests serving these homemade noodles with "earthy mushrooms, vegetables, cheese and butter." We're sold. Hickey describes the pasta as "blank canvas" pasta because it is so simple and basic, just begging you to dress it up with your own favorite sauce or seasonal vegetables. Really, you can't go wrong.
