pasta shapes

[scifisam]

Even if they were made from the same dough, they'd still taste different. Pasta shapes that hold the sauce in them would both taste and smell different to those that don't, and the texture and shape contribute to the overall taste sensation too, in any case.

I'm afraid that you are.

On both the pasta issue and the bread issue, you are wrong.

The pasta bows have more pasta bunched together so that makes them take longer to cook and taste different.

I cooked a dish earlier this week which suggested shells (orecchiette or conchiglie) because they fill up with the ricotta sauce and peas in the recipe and taste good. And they did.

I like massive rigatoni filled with cheesy sauce but I also like fusilli with a tomatoey sauce - of course it tastes different, even without the different sauces

yup. different shapes for different sauces.

And fresh pasta is for cream/oil/butter based sauces not tomato ones. Tomato based sauces are usually better with dried pasta.
