This is one of the biggest question for pasta lovers! 🤔
A lot of people support the thesis of a superior quality of fresh pasta with respect to the dried alternative, since fresh pasta is handcrafted and made at the time of consumption, while the dried alternative is not.
Truth is that is impossible to compare these two categories because the way they are made is too different.
What we can do is weighting the artisanal fresh pasta against the industrial fresh pasta, and in this respect it is right stating the higher quality of the artisanal fresh pasta.
As we can compare different pasta brands and recognize incredible differences between them.
At this point, you could ask yourself: “How can I choose the best pasta, then?”
The rule of thumb boils down to which sauce you're pairing the pasta with. Below some examples:
FRESH PASTA:
Bolognese 👉 “Lasagna sheets”
Cacio e Pepe 👉 “Tonnarelli”
Pesto 👉 “Trofie”
DRIED PASTA:
Carbonara 👉 “Spaghetti”
Amatriciana 👉 “Bucatini”
Tomato 👉 “Spaghetti”
Obviously you can find fresh “spaghetti” or “rigatoni”, but they are not authentic and tasty like their dried version.
The other way round, you can find dried “Trofie”, but they are not authentic and tasty like their fresh version.
In conclusion, the best type of pasta does not exist, it depends on the “connection” with the sauce.
Not to mention, you can prefer other combinations…the opinions in the food world are always subjectives and unquestionable! 😊
