Looks stunningly wonderful too, mate. Lovely stuff and top job. I would happily eat that myself, so please take that as a compliment!:thumbsup:
Only thing, that doesn't look like spaghetti, more like linguine (but thicker), as it's flat (rather than round).... Doesn't matter, though.

Said fresh Spaghetti.. Sainsbury.. but yes it seems to have a slight squareness to it when cooked. looks round in packet tho..Quote:

Ah, okies... Just a wee tip though (although your personal preference might be different), I always prefer using quality dried spaghetti, rather than the 'fresh' stuff that they sell in supermarkets, as for me it usually gives better results (using Italian flour, for starters) - this:

Try it next time instead of the fresh stuff and see what you think:)

Not sure if I've used that one
It used to be Italian pasta I got. I like the fresh stuff too tho and it cooks soft in 4/5 mins. Not keen on Al dente
Trust me, De Cecco is about the best dried pasta you can buy, and the spaghetti is superb:)
However, the 'fresh' egg stuff is quite different, and definitely softer (and much quicker cooking), although of course you can cook the dry stuff until it becomes just as soft, if you're a gumsy goon who can't eat it 'al dente'!:eyebrows:;)
Still buying your Parnigiano Reggiano?
Marco.
Needing a new bit. Ran out of it. Was hoping to get to shop but it was too cold n wet for me. Maybe tomorrow or weekend.Quote:

Just some cheese and biscuits tonight, enjoyed with a nice bottle of red in front of a roaring wood burner:

Nice and cosy.... The Brie de Meaux (best Brie you can buy) is 'oozing' (exactly as it's served in France), and flavour-wise, just incredible!:cool:
