Thanks for everything you do Darla. Sweet Lady.

Next challenge will be Pasta. Everyone here should be able to do a submission with that.

So, we have done noodles already. Are we going to say pasta is different for this one? Not that I’m opposed to doing pasta just a question.

I would humbly argue that pasta is different than noodles. If someone submitted a tortellini in the noodle competition I wouldn’t consider it as valid.

The only reason I ask is that most, if not all of the “noodle” dishes were fresh made pastas. I’m cool
Either way just asking for clarification.

It’s a fair question, I was just making the counter argument that while all noodles are pasta (let’s not delve into the nuances of rice noodles et al, people. You know what I mean) not all pasta are noodles.

Dang I forgot about this one, good looking dishes and congrats/welcome back MD

I thought they were one and the same but a quick google foo says otherwise.

Pasta vs Noodle

quote:

The biggest differences between pasta and noodles are the ingredients and the way they are prepared. Most noodles (aside from rice noodles) are made with a simple milled flour and water process. The flour used in noodles is not any type of specialty flour but rather one milled from common wheat.

Pasta typically contains water, flour, and eggs. Pasta can also be made with added vegetables in the pasta combination. This is a secret way to sneak veggies into your family’s spaghetti dinner, if you need a good way to do that!

Noodles are always sheeted to make them flat while pasta comes in a variety of shapes and sizes. You can even purchase pasta in the shape of bow ties. You definitely won’t find noodles made like that!

Pasta is primarily sold in a dried form. It is also cooked and heated before it is served. You probably won’t eat many cold pasta dishes. Noodles vary from pasta in that way. Noodles can be purchased dried or fresh, or parboiled, or even deep-fried. Noodles can be typically be eaten hot or cold, depending on the dish they are used in.

Of course, both pasta and noodles can be made into various dishes with various meats and sauces. Both can be quite versatile in what they are used for. One thing is for certain, if you get bored with pasta or noodles, you need to look for some new recipes. There are far too many options to be bored with either one!

I look at that and can only imagine the odor a 1000 gallon steam jacketed vessel of O's with Weeneys would smell like. Also how big a retort it would take to can them.

Imagine 100 happy workers slicing weenies as fast as they can and throwing them into a mixing pot.

Discovery Channel has probably already done a segment showing this.
