What kinds of pasta have you had in a pastalaya and how did they turn out?

I was looking in the pasta aisle the other day and thinking that maybe something different might capture the flavors better. Possibly a radiatore or shells or something in a very wet pastalaya. Any of y'all have experience with it?
Does it matter what shape you use or does it all pretty much come out the same?

Rotini /thread. They hold up well and all that pastalaya goodness gets in the little spirals.

This doesn't really answer your question, but it may give you some things to consider when choosing:
Linguine, Spaghetti, or Vermicelli:
1 pound dry = 8 cups cooked
Macaroni, Penne, or Rotini:
1 pound dry = 9 cups cooked
Fine or Medium Egg (Flat) Noodles:
1 pound dry = 10 cups cooked

why spaghetti though? Arguably the most boring of all pastas.

I like it with thick spaghetti noodles cut into about 2" lengths.

I've had it with either penne or the twisty corkscrew pasta

texture, or lack there of. Angel hair is too small to absorb flavor, but speghetti is about right.
Personally, I like Vermicelli.

Rice. Dammit. Rice. At least rice has different flavor profiles. Try making a jambalaya with basmati or jasmine. Will change your world.

How do you know how much liquid to how much pasta? Is every other part of one's recipe the same as usual?
Other ingredients are the same as jambalaya.
