depends on the sauce!

Angel Hair is better for light sauces. Linguini is best for creamy sauces and spaghetti is best for marinara or meat sauces!!

Depends on the sauce weight. I like Vermicelli over Capellini, because Vermicelli isn't as wet with sauce as Capellini.

Lobster or prawns Vermicelli == yum

I love angel hair pasta! I use it for pretty much all pasta dishes I make. More surface area for the sauce to coat! Yummy.

What is gross about a thin pasta noodle vs a thicker pasta noodle? Basically, they are the same one is just thinner than the other.

What the hell is the difference? I mean, so it's thinner... that makes it gross? :confused:

We've been using regular spaghetti noodles, but went through a package of angel hair a few weeks back.. there was no difference, besides the thickness of the noodles.
