    All about pasta

    Paragraph 1

    People all over the world eat a kind of


    food from flour and water. In the West
    this food is known as pasta but in Asia
    we call it noodles.
    Introduction

    Pasta
    is made from flour and water.

    in the West in Asia


    (e.g. Italy, England, France, (e.g. Japan, China, Malayisia,
    Australia, etc.) Singapore, etc)

    Pasta Noodles
    Paragraph 2

    The Chinese first started eating noodles


    about 1,000 years ago. Many people
    believe that Marco Polo, the famous Italian
    explorer, first took noodles from China to
    Italy. However, we now know that the
    Italians were already making pasta before
    that. Italian sailors travelled a long way to
    look for business. They needed food that
    would keep fresh for a long time. So they
    learned how to dry pasta.

    Pasta is still made in the same way


    today, with flour and water. It is then
    rolled out and cut into shapes.
    Sometimes other things are added to
    change the colour. You can find
    green, red and black pasta, made with
    vegetables, tomatoes and even squid
    ink!

    The most popular kind of pasta is spaghetti.


    However, there are many other sizes and
    shapes of pasta. Some look like hats,
    pillows, ears, worms or bows. Some are
    stuffed with meat, seafood, vegetables and
    cheese. One type of pasta is called ‘angel
    hair’ because it is very thin, like hair. Have
    you ever eaten ‘angel hair’ pasta?
