Simple and Easy Cooking With Pasta
Author: Ben P Nicholls  | Posted: 20-04-2008 | Comments: 0 | Views: 51 | Rating: (101)  (?) 
This was a good concept for a cook book, and the recipes are quite good.
Pasta
Pasta recipes for young and old alike. Not so long ago rumor had it that pasta was fattening, and many people, particularly women, avoided pasta recipes afraid of putting on weight.
You can buy dried pasta virtually everywhere, and you find fresh pasta in gourmet or specialty stores. The Balearic island of Eivissa, that you probably know as Ibiza,
kept the longest the tradition of making fresh pasta at home.
Most dried pasta cooks in 10 minutes, but it takes about 20 minutes for the water to boil.
You can serve a meat sauce or a lovely tomato and herb sauce along with your pasta.
But try to remember that although a good pasta sauce will provide for a delicious pasta dish, a few minutes of awareness when boiling pasta is essential to ensure a total success of your pasta recipe.
Macaroni and spaghetti constituted its image in the popular mind but in Italy itself a vast range of different shapes suitable for different sauces were developed and adapted across the regions resulting in the diverse forms in which pasta can be found in shops around the globe today.
I think to be healthier, one to two cups of pasta is enough for one meal. The most important thing for my pasta recipes is to keep them light and clean but give them lots of flavor.
Many of the recipes are designed to be versatile, allowing you to substitute ingredients which you have in your vegetable rack or store cupboard.

At Christmas time we all like to indulge in rich foods, such as Christmas pudding and Christmas Cake, sweets and candy. During the Second World War when food was rationed, children went without sweets. Sugar was rationed to 8oz (225g) per person per month. Sugar is the main ingredient of sweets, which is why they were so scarce and why they became a luxury item.
