Orochiette - did I buy a bad brand?
I'm normally a penne or linguini gal, but have been branching out into different pasta shapes recently, one of which was a supermarket premium brand of orochiette. First time I cooked it, didn't like it at all as was weirdly slimey in texture. I put this down to the sauce, which was also a new one for me. However, tried it again last night with an old favourite and same problem - could barely finish it. Had the texture of a bad homemade pasta that hadn't been rolled enough. Have I just been unlucky with the brand I bought or is this characteristic of this shape? Thanks all!!
