  1. Hi,

    I'm in the dark. There are so many pasta types, alla Carbonara, alla
    Bolognese, etc. Does anybody know of a site that explains each one?

    Thanks.

    What you mentioned are not types of Pasta those are recipes and fairly regional
    in nature.

    Here is a good primer:

    Also look at the pasta maker sites like:

    http://www.barillaus.com/

    Those are dishes, not pasta types. For pasta types (and for just about
    anything else you need food-wise), go here:

    Plus...

    I googled on pasta + names and got to one site:

    http://tn.essortment.com/pastatypes_pnk.htm

    Which basically put an end to the possibility of answering the OP's
    question.

    Pastas or sauces? The alla carbonara involves bacon and a raw egg, I
    think. Bolognese is what lots of us grew up eating - red sauce with
    ground meat in it. Google on pasta -- or use the Google Image feature
    for pics of them. Or try the epicurious.com dictionary.
