Pasta has actually only very recently become popular. April 1st 1957 the BBC was able to release a piece that convinced thousands of people that spaghetti grew on trees. This was only possible because pasta was uncommon enough for people to not have much experience with it. Most people had had it, just not often.

I’m surprised it was made via extrusion. I would have guessed they would make spaghetti alla chitarra.

Being someone that makes pasta for a living what really interested and or surprised me was that you showed an extruded pasta but I would have thought pasta from this date would most certainly be hand rolled
@LumièreRoteFahneon October 26, 2024 at 9:11 pm
Pasta is a pretty old dish. A dish that was know to people outside of italy (the provinces of italy) and we have sayings about pasta in the german and franche lands in the midevil times. So im pretty sure, that pasta was nothing new and exciting for amerikans.

If you’ve ever seen a pulled noodle, you wonder why it didn’t pop up in the west as something common. Pull the noodle, boil in the soup briefly, ladle out. No oven or leavening that bread requires. Then when summer is bountiful and the weather fair, dry noodles for a later time.

Imagine trying to explain pasta to an adult who has never heard of its.
It’s boiled dough that is covered in a sauce. This makes it sound like it’s worse then bread.

The pasta coming out of the press looked so rough. I imagine it really held onto the sauce/gravy and made for very good pasta water for thickening sauce. Cheers.
