Spaghetti, classic Italian pasta

Spaghetti is the most famous and popular shape of Italian pasta in the world. Its long, thin, and round shape is versatile and pairs well with a wide range of sauces from light to rich.

The most classic dishes include spaghetti alla carbonara, bolognese, aglio e olio, and cacio e pepe. Properly cooked spaghetti should be al dente. In Italy spaghetti is never cut and is eaten twirled around a fork.
