Spaghetti

Further Information and Serving Suggestions

Spaghetti, a staple in global cuisine, is renowned for its versatility and delightful texture. This long, slender pasta, sometimes referred to by its alternative name, “spaghetto,” when singular, is celebrated for its round, thin profile, perfect for absorbing and holding onto sauces.

The origins of spaghetti are commonly associated with southern Italy, especially with regions like Sicily and Naples. These areas are celebrated for their rich culinary traditions, where spaghetti has played a central role for centuries.

Spaghetti has become synonymous with Italian cooking, embodying the simplicity and richness of flavours that the cuisine is known for. Its shape, resembling long, thin strands, makes it especially popular in dishes that feature robust and hearty sauces.

Spaghetti is most traditionally used in dishes that allow the pasta to interact harmoniously with the sauce, such as the iconic Spaghetti Bolognese, where it serves as a carrier for the rich, meaty ragu.

Spaghetti Aglio, Olio e Grana Padano

A simple yet flavorful dish with garlic, olive oil, and chilli flakes. This dish works well served in Thailand as it brings common flavours and adjustable spice to the table. Locally available Grana Padano alternative “Palazzo di Palma” will top this to perfection!

Spaghetti Carbonara

This has to be one of the hardest dishes to find well presented in Thailand. There are plenty of places that can, yet so many that get nowhere near the actual dish. Super simple and super quick to make, this will fit right into any Thai kitchen. Luckily the diligent Felicity Cloake has this nailed here. Don’t forget your Pancetta and Palazzo di Palma! Once you’ve made this a few times, you’ll be able to throw it together without looking….to great rejoicing!

Scarletta pasta at Sloane’s, crafted with Bottene machinery from Italy, brings more than a century of Italian excellence to Thailand.
