Ok thats simply wrong. Imagine having bucatini or lasagna with oil and grated parm, or angel hair with a thick cheese sauce or radiatori with a chunky meat sauce.
Yes, there are tons of shapes that are better served by others for literally any application, such as bowties, or ones that are at best entirely interchangeable.
We could totally get away with like 10 shapes with no dish getting worse for it.
??? You’d just be eating chunks of chewy pasta if you used oil with low-surface area pasta, all the angel hair would stay together and the cheese sauce would just be on the outside, and the meat chunks wouldn’t be absorbed into the radiatori fins, just the thinnest layer oil/fat.
nope.
sauce is always on the outside of angel hair.
doesn’t matter with the radiatori.
it’s all the same shit….
the one one where it would matter a lot is lasagna…
but you could throw any pasta into a lasagna recipe and it would still be fine…

You’re technically right but catering for all the variations would cap at 20 shapes when we’re well above 200. Naming pasta is more like a hobby.

those pastas would all be fine with any of those sauces… in any combination
