| 14 | Fat per serving = 4.1 grams calories per serving = 291 delicate angel hair pasta demands a light and elegant sauce, such as this simple white wine mixture flecked with bits of fresh tomato and basil. |
| 15 | It"s a terrific first course of luncheon dish. |
| 16 | I find the spinach and semolina varieties to be somewhat sturdier than plain wheat-flour angel hair pasta, but you still need to handle them carefully. |
| 17 | Cook for only 30 seconds to 1 minute, toss, and serve immediately. |
| 18 | I prefer dried pasta to fresh for several reasons, not the least of which is that it lacks the fat and cholesterol of the fresh variety, which is made with eggs. |
| 19 | Better-quality dried pastas can be purchased in a seemingly endless range of flavors--usually at a fraction of the price of fresh. |
| 20 | They hold up to the most robust of sauces and are simpler to cook. |
| 21 | If you use fresh pasta, be sure to separate the strands before adding them to the pot so tht they don"t stick together while cooking. |
| 22 | Time carefully. |
| 23 | Fresh pasta is done in 3 to 5 minutes and can be overcooked easily. |
