Fettuccine

Fetuccini is called a type of pasta, the homeland of which is Italy, but they are popular all over the world. It is noteworthy that this dish, which Italians traditionally begin to cook with dough kneading, is sold in Russia, as a rule, in dry form.

This tradition is also a success in our country. By the way, it is believed that the better the sauce is prepared, the tastier the ready-made dish will be. For example, spaghetti bolognese is known for its name due to the sauce with which it is customary to serve pasta, while fetuccini is called so precisely because of noodles.

Fetuccini sauce with ham and mushrooms is usually made in cream or sour cream. In addition to mushrooms and ham, this pasta can be served like any other pasta, with a variety of seafood (salmon, shrimp), chicken meat and other products. For the sharpness of fetuccini, instead of ground black pepper, a small chilli piece is often used, which is previously freed from seeds.

However, no matter how tasty these Italian pasta is, one should not forget that the calorie content of fetuccini is quite high, which is due to the composition of this flour product. That is why you can treat yourself and your relatives with such an exquisite dish without harm to the figure no more than once a week.
