Food

A place to share what you're cooking and eating on Farcaster.

Went down a rabbit hole over Christmas to find the best dry pasta 1) from Italy 2) easy enough to get without too much advanced planning (ie Amazon) and have been happy with Monograno Felicetti.

Blind taste test confirmed!

If it tastes better to you that's great. Whenever I visit my family in Italy they cook with Barilla. I think the sauce matters a lot more than the pasta as long as you've got some bare minimum of quality on the pasta side

Barilla in Italy is higher quality than Barilla in the US because the Italian government regulates it.

Thats everything, McDonald's buns are better for that reason as well I believe.

However I believe my wife uses barilla and to the other points the sauce does matter tremendously (we make Sunday sauce from "Nana's recipe".

Personally... I always go fresh. But that's because of how much lighter eggier taste it has

European food quality regulations are a rare regulatory W

Wow so one good thing does come out of the European penchant for regulation!

Fascinating!  I’m envious of EU food regulations…
