Ew. Why not pasta with... Any kind of fat or sauce?

[-] Bizarroland@kbin.social 14 points 11 months ago

Cheese has fat in it, it is basically congealed milk fat after all.

[-] sciencesebi@feddit.ro 2 points 11 months ago

No shit. But it's digusting with pasta

[-] NewNewAccount@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

You sure? I can think of half a dozen cheese-heavy pasta dishes that are delicious.

[-] sciencesebi@feddit.ro 2 points 11 months ago

Having cheese as an ingredient is not the same as melting cheese.

Find an italian pasta dish where they just boil the pasta and then fucking melt cheese on it. Barf

Macaroni and cheese? Fettuccini Alfredo?

[-] sciencesebi@feddit.ro 2 points 11 months ago

I T A L I A N. Those are america trash

🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹

Reminder: you’re the one who mentioned Italian.

[-] Rebels_Droppin@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

You ever heard of Mac and Cheese?

[-] azulavoir@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago

or tortellini or ravioli for that matter

[-] sciencesebi@feddit.ro 2 points 11 months ago

That's cooked with the pasta not melted over

[-] sciencesebi@feddit.ro 2 points 11 months ago

Yes. Fuck that yank shit

[-] ThrowawayPermanente@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago

This is heresy, brother

[-] sciencesebi@feddit.ro 1 points 11 months ago

To Murica maybe

[-] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 3 points 11 months ago

Cause cheese is tasty

[-] ryathal@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago

Alfredo is basically liquid cheese.

[-] sciencesebi@feddit.ro 1 points 11 months ago

It's butter and cream. It's liquid cheese in the same sense soup is if you grate some parm over it.

Fucking burgers

[-] ryathal@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago

It equal parts parmesan and cream/butter. That's basically enough fluid to make parmesan liquid.

[-] sciencesebi@feddit.ro 1 points 11 months ago

And pasta water.

[-] Lord_Wunderfrog@lemmy.fmhy.net 1 points 11 months ago

You can't tell me pasta with butter and parmesan isn't delicious

[-] sciencesebi@feddit.ro 2 points 11 months ago

Butter is fat. In any case, cheese sauces are made with pasta water and are part of the cooking process. You don't just melt cheese.
