The earliest pasta was formed around the 13th and 14th centuries AD, and by the time of the Renaissance, the variety and sauce of pasta were gradually enriched with art. People think of cutting the dough into small pieces, or slender noodles in the shape of sticks, the emergence of tomatoes and subsequent variety improvements. In Napoli, Italy, it was first used as a sauce to accompany noodles, which has made noodles very popular, and even the royal family and nobles have been attracted.

Face to face should be a well-deserved representative of pasta, and it is also the shape of pasta that many people in the world know. Almost when it comes to pasta, the first thing that comes to most people's minds is spaghetti. Face-to-face is suitable for almost all ingredients, can also be used in a variety of cooking methods, and can be paired with any sauce.

At the same time, Face to face is the most popular pasta in the world today, and it is also the easiest shape to buy, it occupies 2/3 of the world's pasta sales, and it has also created a miracle in history. Spaghetti is a new word that was only invented in 1836, and its process of reaching the world was relatively slow, and it was not introduced to the United States until the end of the 19th century, and began to enter the United Kingdom after the end of World War II, and has since swept the world.
