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.
The chart maps the diverse world of pasta shapes and goes well beyond the ones you can find in a typical grocery store, including the more silly-looking âornamental shapesâ and a whole universe of handmade pastas unknown to most people.
