How many types of pasta do you usually have in the cupboard

[amillionnamechangeslater000]

Dh doing the weekly shop - asked him to grab some conchiglie as had run out. His response - but we already have penne and spaghetti.

Now if he’d looked a bit closer he’d also know that we have a few others too, but I can’t rest easy unless I have at least shells, something tube like and spaghetti at least in the house. Am I a weirdo? What pasta do you keep “in stock”?

Loads. We have linguine, spaghetti, pasta shells and tubes and probably 2 or 3 other types. DS eats pasta 4-5 times a week and it MUST be a mix of shapes!

For those asking noodles and clue CPU’s definitely do NOT count! 😊

Lasagne sheets
Spaghetti
Tagliatelle
Spirals/twists
Orzo

Spaghetti or linguine
Tagliatelle
Penne
Macaroni

Then an assortment of oddments

@MissOrganisedMe I usually do some variation on this - www.deliciousmagazine.co.uk/recipes/easy-orzo-pasta-with-oregano-feta-and-tomato-sauce/

What about gnocchi? In or out?

Wow, didn't realise I go so far against the grain!

We usually have spaghetti, possibly lasagne sheets and then one or two bags of shapes, don't care what shapes, barely even look, we'd put any old shape with any dish unless we were making something naice for a dinner party or whatever

We have:
Fusilli
Penne
Spaghetti
Linguine (dried and fresh)
Macaroni
And the all important Paw Patrol

Bloody hell - my autocorrect is having a field day - couscous

I always have lasagne and spaghetti then one other shape. Conchiglie is my favourite but I wouldn't have sent him out if I had penne in sorry

@TheYearOfSmallThings am on the fence about gnocchi... is it pasta - is it potato?

Conchigile, fussili, penne and spaghetti right now.

Will be buying some more different types tomorrow

Spaghetti
Lasagne sheets
Bows
Fusilli
Dinosaur
Beetroot penne
Pea penne
Chickpea penne
Macaroni

No idea I had this much variety - but I definitely need it!

Spaghetti... even then, I expect it's past its fossilisation date.

I didn't realise pasta was such a "thing" until lockdown hit.

5 or 6 probably - it depends on how recently we’ve had a grocery delivery.

Totally agree. Doesn't feel like pasta when you eat it...

Always have fusilli, spaghetti and lasagne. Quite often other shapes (penne, macaroni etc) and tagliatelle.
This thread is making me want to eat pasta.

I actually never usually buy gnocchi and make it from scratch as I learned how to do it as a kid. But do actually have two of the long life type packs stashed from the start of lockdown (the first one).

Spaghetti, fusilli and lasagne in the cupboard

Ravioli in the fridge

Tagliatelle in the freezer

Erm, off the top of my head...

Wholewheat fusilli
Bucatini
Linguini
Lasagne sheets
Gnocchi, are we counting gnocchi?

Plus probably some random fancy multi coloured stuff from a gift hamper, tucked in the back of a cupboard somewhere.
