Hot Tips
Fresh vs dry pasta
Similarly to pasta shapes, the choice between fresh and dry pasta is more about matching flavours and textures than about which is superior. Fresh pasta is well suited to delicate sauces, but its primary purpose is to make tortellini, ravioli and lasagne sheets.
Glossary
Papaya
Also known as Pawpaw. The word is often used to refer to the red-coloured, sweeter pawpaw from Thailand.
