Italian Dry Pasta.

Probably the most popular and most simple pasta shape in the world! Spaghetti originates in Naples, where Garofalo pasta is made. Spaghetti is the plural form of the Italian word spaghetto, meaning "thin string" or "twine. Traditionally, most spaghetti was 50 cm (20 in) long, but shorter lengths gained in popularity during the latter half of the 20th century and now spaghetti is most commonly available in 25-30 cm (10-12 in) lengths. The Garofalo traditional spaghetti is 20.5 inches long and wrapped in attractive paper for the full traditional look. Along with a classic bolognaise sauce, seafood is a popular combination with spaghetti.

Spaghetti alla siciliana with swordfish, Salmoriglio and Taggiasche olives.
Ingredients for 4 people:
400g Garofalo spaghetti,
250 g loin of swordfish finely diced,
30 g parsley,
30 g small capers (in brine, washed),
10 g bay leaves ,
50 g Taggiasche olives not pitted (available in any good Italian delis),
2 cloves of garlic,
½ tea spoon anchovy paste,
30 ml extra virgin olive oil,
Lemon juice to taste,
30 ml white whine.
Method:
In a small food processor blitz all herbs and capers to a fine paste. Add the lemon juice (2 teaspoons) and 20 ml of olive oil and set aside. In a large frying pan, place the olive oil and the anchovy paste and the garlic and gently warm through until the paste is completely dissolved.
Add the finely diced swordfish, the herbs salmoriglio and simmer. Add the white wine and cook until the smell of wine has dissipated and the fish is cooked ( be aware this fish should only take a maximum of 2 minutes !
At the end add the Taggiasche olives.
In the meantime boil a copious amount of water (at least one litre per 100 g of pasta), and when boiling add the salt, roughly speaking 2 TBS rock salt, add the pasta. Cook to al dente (for Spaghetti 11 minutes).

Best pasta
Garafalo is the best pasta, so glad Ocado stock it. Since discovered it’s also the pasta my relatives in Italy use too so that’s a good sign.
