Seafood And Pasta - Interesting Facts

What happens when we mix seafood and pasta?... Simply we obtain an exotic and tasty dish that surely will surprise your loved ones or people in your restaurant in case you own one.

When my family requests me to prepare a special pasta dish often I prepare some pasta with seafood but last weekend I surprised them with one of their favorite dishes: Farfalle pasta with shrimp. I hadn't done it for a long time and they were really happy when they knew they would eat that dish.

I'm writing this article to share some tips about how to prepare seafood and pasta together and as well share
some nice moments as the example above. It's fabulous the good moments food can make you feel specially with your loved ones.

If you choose to make pasta with shrimp I really advice you to make it a bit spicy, that really makes the flavor from shrimp more delicious and intense. I like to make it in an oriental style, a bit sweet and spicy sauce, sometimes I make this with farfalle pasta and other times with spaghetti or even fettucini.

Another times instead of shrimp I've used fish and oysters, I really like to make a soup of oysters with angel hair pasta or a delicious fettucini al pesto with grilled fish, it's simply delicious. Why grilled? Here is one tip I can give to you, when grilled the fish is better for pasta because the texture gets more dried but at the same time as you can add pepper and another common grill condiments you can really pomp up fish's flavor and make it fit better with pasta. Another interesting fact is that as fish is more dried than usually the pasta's sauce can perform better.

If you have enough experience you could experiment and come out with something different and delicious!
