Adam Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Pasta and cream should never be used in the same sentence. Nice looking salad though.What a load of rubbish, pasta and cream are fantastic in some meals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Diego De la Vega Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Doesn’t exist in Italy pal but if that’s you’re thing who am I to stop you.It really does "alla panna" is very common especially with sausage dishes, maybe it's not swimming in cream like an American style sauce like alfredo but it does exist. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To qualify my statement, I live there! Authentic alfredo is made with butter and Parmesan, not cream. You won’t find pasta with cream or chicken here. At least no authentic restaurants. Sorry if it’s upsetting you all but it’s s fact. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both statements cant be fact. 12 minutes ago, jimbaxters said: What were they and can you provide a list of ingredients, mouth? Sorrento last August, one of the seafood places down the harbour where the ferries leave. I had a delightful seafood linguine, in a creamy white wine sauce along with a couple of mango daiquiris. It was delightful, but now wish I'd asked for a copy of the ingredients. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure it was cream and not béchamel? No need for aggression btw 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Pasta alla norcina and gramigna alla salsiccia are about the only two genuine cream pastas I can think of tbh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need for aggression btw There's no aggression, I'm merely pointing out a slight contradiction in your 'facts'. You've said that cream in pasta doesn't exist in Italy, then went on to say it does but not in authentic Italian restaurants. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) Who gives the slightest shit if it's 'authentic' or not? People don't seriously base food they make at home on that do they? Surely folk eat things they like? Edited August 2, 2020 by DA Baracus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
