What the hamburger is in America, pasta is in Italy. Pasta is eaten across the world but is most famously eaten within this country. To accompany the dish, various recipes for very differing sauces have been created by Italian chefs.

In the North, pesto style sauces are most common, while red sauces, commonly eaten here in America, are found in Central Italy, and oil or seafood sauces can be found in the South where the Mediterranean makes seafood plentiful.

Junior Carlotta Massoni, spending time in the U.S. from Italy, eats pasta regularly. On special occasions, more intricate sauces are prepared for any guests her family might be hosting.

“My mom makes the pasta,” she said, ‘This recipe is just a special dinner, when you have some guests.”
