|
|
I love pasta. Morever, I love pasta. Now that you understand that I like pasta, where can I find some? I am not talking about regular, elbo, or angel hair pasta. I am talking about ziti, bowtie, and spiral-shaped pasta. Any online places where a foreigner can buy some? |

My local grocery store in Hyehwa has bowtie and spirals. Shouldn't be too hard to find. Now what I'm looking for is egg noodles closer than Itaewon. |

There are at least half a dozen varieties of Barilla pasta (I know, I know...the McDonald's of pasta) at the Home Plus and Homever near my place. |

Speaking of pasta, who makes the best pasta sauce? I've tried the Fresco onion and garlic sauce...a bit sweet, but not bad. |

I made some ricotta cheese over the weekend, it was surprisingly easy. Just google for a simple recipe (milk and lemon juice). It tasted all right to me. |

yeah. I ordered some via Gmarket. I even ordered some of their hard-to-find sauces. I'll let you guys know how that goes. |

Make your own - get a crapload of milk, heat it to the boiling point, and then add a few tablespoons of lemon juice or vinegar to curdle it. It'll separate into curds and whey. Strain the curds in cheesecloth (or clean pantyhose in the absence of cheesecloth) and voila! Dry ricotta. |
