Two shapes of pasta in one dish?!
Are there any "traditional" pasta dishes that call for more than one shape of pasta!? My wife recently made a lasagna with the traditional noodles, but also used some leftover shell noodles!. It didnt hurt the dish at all, !.!.!. it kind of made it a little more interesting, but i am afraid that we all think "leftovers" if we find more than one shape of pasta in a dish!.
Is there any accepted dish that requires more than one shape of pasta in its recipe!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Hi, I'm Italian!!.
The answer is no!.!.!.the problem is that different shape of paste need different cooking time!.!.!.so you can cook them separately, but it's a waste of time, or an half of your dish will be over cooked and the other half non-cooked!.!.!.
hope you can see what I mean!.!.!.:)
I admit that sometimes I cook 2 or 3 kind of pasta in the same dish but only because I would haven't enough!.
No body is going to arrest you if you mix some kind of pasta!.!.!.but you will never find real Italian recipes with more than one!.
Bye and Buon appetito! :)Www@FoodAQ@Com
