October 25 is universally celebrated as World Pasta Day. This iconic dish, not only for Italian culture, has deep roots in the culture of many countries, and this day provides the perfect opportunity to recognize the importance of our favorite carbohydrate source.
Pasta is more than just a food; it is a culinary art form that embraces the cultural and geographic diversity of the planet. Its origins date back thousands of years, with records suggesting the use of pasta in ancient Egypt and China. However, it is in Italy that pasta has achieved excellence, and to date more than 300 different types are recognized in Italy alone, with shapes and doughs varying from region to region.
This day also provides an opportunity to reflect on the importance of sustainability and innovation in pasta production. New technologies and sustainable approaches are helping to make the pasta industry greener and reduce its environmental impact, as well as employing thousands of people in every corner of the globe.
In short, World Pasta Day is a time when we celebrate a food that has become a symbol of culinary diversity and sharing. As we enjoy a plate of pasta today, let's remember to appreciate its history, its versatility, and above all, let's remember to respect it by avoiding nestiness things like putting ketchup on it or flooding it with carcinogenic cheeses of dubious origin-every time a tutorial like this appears, an Italian dies! Happy World Pasta Day to all and don't forget your daily dose of pasta!
