Pasta

The Dales Chef

Friday, 27 June 2025 - 12 minutes

Think pasta, think Italy - or so we thought. Pasta is originally from China and today we find out why.

We look at some great ways to cook pasta and is fresh or dried best?

We sample pasta from the award-winnng Yorkshire Pasta Company, based in Malton, North Yorkshire - that definitely gets our thumbs up!

We've fun facts and also remember the day the BBC fooled the country with pasta growing on spagetti trees!
