Product Description
"This amazing quality fresh spaghetti is perfect for light sauces like tomato and basil.
Vittorio Maschio and his team create the pasta at our premises, using the finest ingredients. Two types of flour are used to give the perfect elasticity, bite and structure and Italian eggs for that perfect yellow colour. As a small producer, we use bronze dies to extrude the pasta, a set of specially designed discs with different shaped openings. As the pasta is passed through by hand, the bronze dies give it a rougher, powdery surface that holds sauce better. We are proud to supply this incredible fresh pasta to some London’s finest restaurants.

Prepare & Use
Fresh pasta which has not been pasteurised cannot be cooked in the same way as dried pasta. Cooking times are greatly reduced and one of its virtues, its ability to absorb sauces far better than dried pasta, can lead to pasta sticking together if not cooked properly.
Remove the nests of pasta from the pack, unravel the pasta, and ensure the strands are all loose and not stuck together before cooking. When the salted water reaches a boil, drop the pappardelle in the pot, gently stir and leave to cook for 1 ½ to 2 ½ minutes maximum. Rather than strain the pasta, lift from from the water and immediately put into the pan with the sauce with a little of the cooking water, cook for a further 1 minute gently folding the pasta in the sauce. If you do strain the pasta do not leave it to sit as this will cause it to stick together

Absolutely gross
I thought that this spaghetti would be good quality, especially considering that it is more expensive than other spaghetti on ocado. Unfortunately, this was horrendous. I cooked it for the specified time, and as soon as I drained it, it stuck together in a mush. It was like eating a wet doughnut!!! I thought the pasta sauce I put onto the spaghetti might separate it, but the spaghetti stayed clumped together. It was unpleasant to eat and is still stuck in my teeth!! Waitrose essential is 100 times better.

Unpleasant texture
As hard as I tried to keep this al dente, as soon as it hit the sauce it collapsed to an unpleasant mush. Wouldn't recommend.

Best store-bought pasta!
I feel I should defend this wonderful spaghetti against all the negative reviews. It's the best pasta I've ever bought from a supermarket in terms of both taste and texture. It cooks in about 3-4 minutes, which makes it ideal for quick meals. Love it!
