舌尖美食文化

Penne is a tube-shaped pasta that originates in Campania,a region inSouthern Italy. It is probably one of the more well-known pasta shapes,available in most markets and grocery stores that stock pasta.Cooks with access to a pasta extruder can also make their own penne,should they so desire.Dishes made with it are frequently on the menu at Italian restaurants,especially in the United States,where consumers have a fondness for this shape.

斜管面是源自于意大利南部坎帕尼亚地区的管状的意大利面。这可能是一种最著名的意大利面形状,在超市或杂货店均可买到。有面食挤压机的话,可以制作自己的斜管面。意大利餐厅常常有这道菜,尤其在美国,越来越多的顾客喜欢这种意大利面。

The name“penne”comes from the Italian word for“pen,”a reference to the angled ends of the tube,which resemble the tip of a quill pen. It comes in smooth and ridged varieties,and can be used in a wide assortment of dishes,from casseroles to soups.The tubes are usually relatively short,around the length and width of a pinkie finger.

斜管面的名字来自于意大利文字“笔管”,它末端的管状与羽毛笔有点相似。它的外皮有光滑和棱纹两种,可做多种菜式,包括炒的或带汤的等等。斜管面长度一般比较短,长宽如小指。
