How people cook with it
This pasta is excellent for many different sauce pairings. It works well in both simple and complex dishes.
- With creamy sauces
- In baked dishes
- With light tomato sauces
- As a side dish
To cook, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the pasta and stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until al dente, which means it is tender but still has a slight bite. Drain the pasta well. You can then toss it with your favorite sauce, butter, or olive oil. It is important to use enough water so the pasta can move freely and cook evenly. Overcrowding the pot can lead to clumpy pasta.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to ridged pasta, the smooth surface of Lisci nr 45 offers a different mouthfeel. Sauces may not cling as tenaciously as they do to textured pasta, but they will coat the strands evenly. This makes it ideal for lighter, more delicate sauces that you want to coat rather than embed.
