How Pasta Was Invented Everywhere At Once

[@Killem-Dafoe]

We were poor as shit growing up so I lived on buttered noodles, usually bow ties or shells. Little salt and pepper and that's one of my ultimate comfort foods 40 years later

[@seanbordenkircher7854]

Ah buttered noodles, hard to beat!

[@joshgreen2164]

Nothing quite like buttered noodles. I agree wholeheartedly.

According to an April 1957 episode of BBC Panorama, spaghetti grows on trees and is harvested in both Italy and Switzerland.

You can find that on KZbin, too. LOL

Don't forget about the spaghetti trees of Italy

[@RaquelFoster]

The funny thing is that tomatoes are from South America, and they didn't exist in Italy in Pre-Columbian times. Italian pasta was usually in a broth.

[@thanakonpraepanich4284]

And the cream sauce pasta popular in modern Rome came along later, maybe 18th Century?

[@michaelturner2806]

2:08 BBC viewers on 1 April 1957 were treated to a mini documentary showing a family in Southern Switzerland harvesting from their spaghetti trees.

My favorite pasta dish so far is a lobster/shrimp ravioli with a white wine cream sauce. The fancy ravioli is just an excuse to enjoy the white wine sauce, it's the star of the show! Paired with a salad of spinach, avacado, grape tomatoes, cucumber and blue cheese dressing it is a dish I make from scratch so I can enjoy it 5 times at a fraction of the cost it would be at restaurants.

[@Warg666]

"Evidence of Etruscans making pasta dates back to 400 BCE.[3] The first concrete information on pasta products in Italy dates to the 13th or 14th centuries.[13] In the 1st century AD[dubious - discuss] writings of Horace, lagana (sg.: laganum) were fine sheets of fried dough[14] and were an everyday foodstuff.[15] Writing in the 2nd century, Athenaeus of Naucratis provides a recipe for lagana which he attributes to the 1st century Chrysippus of Tyana: sheets of dough made of wheat flour and the juice of crushed lettuce, then flavored with spices and deep-fried in oil.[15] An early 5th century cookbook describes a dish called lagana that consisted of layers of dough with meat stuffing, an ancestor of modern-day lasagna.[15] However, the method of cooking these sheets of dough does not correspond to the modern definition of either a fresh or dry pasta product, which only had similar basic ingredients and perhaps the shape."

First off, the fresh versus dried pasta. Historically there was pasta maker in Italy that would door knock or you would book to make dried pasta for you. They would come to your house and you would supply the ingredients and you would pay them to turn it into pasta in bulk for cellar. So you completely dont understand the history of pasta in italy other then some ancient writing and not how the pasta culture in italy worked They found pasta aka lasagna type dishes is mention ancient Egypt & Babylonians text. As for the claim of china as the origin both ancient Europe and Asia have been trading and trade with each other and the ancient Chinese paddle boat was found to be first created by Babylonian. (this was after the Mongolian empire collapsed and the last son from a Chinese concubine died leaving no children. in the new Mongolian capital of Beijing (the same person china claim all the achievements of Mongolian empire as their own) Spaghetti and meatballs is not Italian but Greek origin and it Italian heritage comes from the trading / fishing ports/towns.
