Angel hair pasta(意大利天使面)
Angel hair pasta is Capellini~ Very, very thin spaghetti~
Capellini ([kapelˈliːni], literally "thin hair") is a very thin variety of Italian pasta. Like spaghetti, it is rod-shaped, in the form of long strands, and thinner than vermicelli(細面,一般短於5cm).
Chefs know—but many home cooks don’t realize—that there’s a reason certain sauces don’t work with certain pastas. Fragile pastas like angel hair can’t be weighted down by heavy ragùs. By the same token, robust penne and shells need more than a dressing of olive oil and garlic.
