Pasta(意大利面)is one of the most popular foods in the world. People love pasta because it is cheap, quick and easy to make. You can eat pasta on its own with cheese, or with sauce. Pasta comes in so many different shapes and sizes. There are at least 200 different types of pasta.
One of the reasons there are so many types of pasta is that each part of Italy has its own pasta. Pasta has been an important part of Italians' diet since the 13th century. It started as a food for the rich. But by the 17th century, all Italians enjoyed pasta. This is when the first pasta machines were invented. As pasta became easier to make, it became cheaper to buy. Pasta is still an important part of the Italian diet. But now it is an important part of many other people's diet too.
Many people buy pasta, but it's easy to make. You only need flour, salt and eggs. It takes some time to mix the pasta dough together. Then you can choose which type of pasta shape to make. A pasta machine is very useful for this, but you can also cut the pasta by hand.
