You can’t go wrong with pasta because you can enjoy a plate of it as many times as you can, whether it’s spaghetti, fettuccini, rigatoni, and the list goes on. You may not want to overeat it because pasta means you’re consuming a lot of carbs, which can be hard on your pancreas. However, you can make that exception on World Pasta Day, which falls on October 25.
World Pasta Day was established on October 25, 1995 as part of the World Pasta Congress. World-renowned experts gathered to discuss the joys of noodles, emphasizing the importance of spreading knowledge about the world’s pasta panorama. And so World Pasta Day became a thing! Now let’s see what kind of pasta you like, based on your zodiac sign!
Aries – Spaghettini
Aries, you are tough and you are in a hurry. However, you are not the one who wants to wait for anything, so you don’t have the patience to spend too much time in the kitchen. That is why the speghattini is ideal for you if you make a pasta dish. The reason is that the speghattini cooks quickly and is not as fragile as it seems, which you can relate to. In addition, it is thinner than classic spaghetti and goes well with light sauces. In your case, however, you add some spice to your pasta dish because of your fiery nature.
Taurus – Linguini
Taurus, you are not one to venture into the unknown, which is why you stick to a classic and traditional pasta dish and love linguini. It’s a conventional pasta that you’ll love because the noodles are nice and thick too, giving you exactly what you want in a pasta dish. Since you’re not the one who wants to do something unconventional, you’ll probably eat your linguini dish with marinara sauce and lots of cheese.
Gemini – Caramel
Gemini, you are versatile and love everything that seems fun. Even if you don’t turn your nose up when you are offered a traditional pasta dish because they are so tasty, your ideal pasta noodle is the caramel pasta. The reason for this is that the caramel paste resembles candy. If the caramel paste is undercooked, it will look like a hard candy, which is attractive to you. No, it doesn’t taste like candy, but since you love everything childish and fun, it’s not surprising that this pasta will suit you perfectly.
Cancer – Conchiglione
Cancer, you are the one who seeks comfort, and you love your home and family. Therefore, the best pasta for you would represent that for you. Since your sign is a water sign, you want the type of pasta to reflect that. That is why the conchiglione, the shell-shaped pasta, suits you best. And you also love the giant pasta shells, so you can fill ricotta cheese with chives and pour lots of tomato sauce over them. This gives you a hearty pasta dish that is very cheesy and that you can enjoy at home with your family.
Leo – Paccheri
Leo, you want to stand out from the crowd because you want others to notice you; your generosity will help. When it comes to the ideal pasta, even if you’re not known as a chef, when you have guests, you want to cook to show off. And the ideal type of pasta for you is the paccheri noodles which are similar to rigatoni noodles, but wider and larger. With these tubular noodles you can fry a variety of delicious cheese, creamy or tomato dishes, so you will impress your guests you invite for dinner. That’s what you want because those noodles make a big impression that they will remember you for it.
Virgo – Orzo
Virgo, you are practical and analytical, as you are also health conscious. You should not opt for overly cheesy dishes because the calorific value is too high. That is why orzo is the ideal pasta for you. Orzo is versatile, so you can use it in various low-calorie dishes such as soup, but also in a pasta salad, to which you can add lots of vegetables and some meat if desired. You can also use orzo in risotto dishes, but that is optional. Either way, you’ll find practical uses for orzo.
Libra – Ziti
Libra is all about balance, peace and harmony, and the ideal pasta for Libra is the ziti noodles. That’s because ziti noodles are compatible with any sauce, thick or thin. You can also use ziti noodles for baked and boiled pasta dishes. Therefore, the ziti noodles can “get along” or work with anything you want, as this is a very versatile noodle. Plus, the ziti noodle tastes better with something extra than a meal on its own. For example, you can eat a spaghetti meal plain, possibly with some Parmesan cheese. However, the ziti noodle is best with thick cheeses, meats, vegetables and everything else – just as Libra is best with others rather than alone.
Scorpio – Lasagna
Scorpio, you are mysterious and intense, so the ideal pasta for you is lasagna. Why would that be? That’s because lasagna consists of layers of pasta, cheese and meat, and you can say that lasagna is a complex dish. But Scorpio, you are also a complex individual. And the thin layers of pasta cover the cheese and meat very well and keep them hidden until you cut it and take a bite out of it, which can surprise you with a savory taste.
Sagittarius – Ravioli
Sagittarius, you are adventurous, fun and love all things cultural. Therefore, ravioli would be the type of pasta dish that would be ideal for you. That’s because you can add any filling you want to the ravioli pasta. You can add different fillings belonging to different cultures in the pasta noodles, such as Asian fillings consisting of vegetables, seafood or other meat. You can also have fun adding other types of filling to the pasta, such as mushrooms or pumpkin. The sky is the limit when it comes to creating different ravioli dishes.
Capricorn – Fusilli
Capricorn, you are ambitious and hardworking, and your mind has plenty of ideas that you will put into practice. For example, you can identify with the fusilli pasta noodles because they resemble spinning machines, hence your mind. You also find them impressive pastas because they are long noodles with grooves, and those who make that pasta work very hard to make it look like a work of art. You can use any sauce with fusilli, but since you like it refined, you can turn this noodle into a gourmet meal.
Aquarius – Casarecce
Aquarius, you’re the one who does your thing and doesn’t want to conform, which is why the typical long noodle doesn’t impress you. Almost every pasta dish contains spaghetti or linguini. That’s why you like a twisty one, like the casarecce noodle. You can use the casarecce noodles in casseroles or pasta salads. You can use it in any pasta dish, no matter what sauce you want to use. Since this noodle is somewhat unusual, you can handle it well.
Pisces – Gigli
Pisces, you are very artsy and dreamy, and you would like to enjoy a pasta dish that you can relate to, and that is why the gigli noodle resonates with you. Gigli is a bit winding, like casarecce, but has an artistic finish on the outside because it has a floral look, which makes it artistic. And because Pisces is very creative, there are so many ideas for pasta dishes that you can use with the gigli pasta. But more often than not, you’ll pair this pasta noodle with intriguing European delicacies like pancetta.
At least now you know different pasta noodles and dishes you might want to try on World Pasta Day. And you want to celebrate that day on October 25. Some noodles may intrigue based on your zodiac sign, or they may intrigue regardless of your zodiac sign. Anyway, go to the grocery store and start grabbing some. That will be a great evening to prepare a tasty pasta meal for your family or yourself.
