Linguine

Pasta, and in the common people, pasta has long taken a worthy place in the list of the most popular and widely used food products in the entire planet Earth. Indeed, at present, the vast majority of people in all parts of the world have heard of pasta. Modern pasta is an integral part of the diet of the inhabitants of our latitudes.

The title of the most loyal admirers and fans of pasta is rightfully deserved by Italians who simply do not think about their daily diet without pasta. Moreover, in Italy, the process of making pasta or pasta is taken incredibly seriously. True Italian pasta is thought to be a product that was made exclusively from high-quality hard wheat varieties.

Moreover, it is customary to knead dough for making real homemade Italian paste on key or spring water. Of course, modern Italian pasta manufacturers have simplified the requirements for the original ingredients a little. However, until now, it is Italian pasta that is considered the standard of taste and quality.

This is due, first of all, to the fact that Italians know how, and most importantly, they like to cook pasta. Currently, there are over several hundred varieties of pasta. As a rule, this or that type of pasta differs in composition, production technology and appearance. There are perhaps five main groups of Italian pasta:



baking pasta (cannelloni, lasagne);

small or soup pasta (filini, stelline or orecchiete);

curly pasta (farfalle, kazerechche, nyoki);

short pasta (fusilli, penne, maccheroni, pipe rigate, tortilloni);

long pasta (bavette, spaghetti, fettuccine, vermicelli, as well as linguine).



Translated from Italian, the name of long pasta linguine or linguine sounds like "tongues. " Linguine pasta is a classic and one of the most common and popular types of Italian pasta. The birthplace of pasta linguine is considered the oldest Italian region of Campania.

The history of the area is deeply rooted in the era of Antiquity, when Campapania was part of Greece. In appearance, linguine pasta is close to such equally well-known types of Italian pasta as fettuccine and tagliatelle. Linguine is nothing more than Italian domestic noodles, a so-called, large format.

Linguine pasta is only slightly thinner than fettuccine and resembles traditional Italian spaghetti. According to quality standards, linguine pasta does not exceed 10 cm in length and has a flattened shape. It is worth noting that for all the visible resemblance to spaghetti in the Italian culinary tradition, linguine is used to prepare dishes with seafood or fish. In addition, a combination of traditional pesto sauce and linguine pasta is considered ideal.
