Types of Pasta. There are two major classifications: pasta fresca (fresh) and pasta secca (dried). From here, there are more than 400 unique types of pasta: sheets, strips, long strands, cylinders, unique shapes, flavors, and many other local varieties.
Semolina Pasta Dough. Some pasta shapes are traditionally made with an eggless, semolina-based dough rather than the standard egg pasta used in much of Italian cooking. Semolina dough is essential for cavatelli, pici and orecchiette. Learn how to make this classic dough with Matt Abdoo, chef de cuisine of Del Posto.
