Pasta

This is why some of the most popular stuffed pastas come from this region. | Pasta roughly translates to paste in Italian, referring to the mix of flour, water, and eggs that pasta is made from. | Northern Italy, for example, tends to add eggs in the dough to make a pasta that is elastic enough to hold heavy fillings inside. | This simple mix of a few ingredients, however, differs greatly through the many regions of Italy, where each region produces its own type of pasta based on what it is meant to be eaten with.
