Some years ago I ran into a friend in the pasta section at Holiday Market who was raving about corn pasta. "It's absolutely wonderful," she said. "You must try it." So I bought a box, which I put on the shelf and promptly forgot about.
I was reminded of this while shopping at TJ's the other day when I noticed that they, too, now carry corn pasta. Once again I bought a box, which I put on the shelf, but this time I actually cooked it and had it for dinner with a simple white clam sauce.
Verdict: It's good- surprisingly so. I have not had good luck with various alternate pastas in the past, like whole wheat or lo-carb pasta, but this was different. It does seem a bit stickier than the usual wheat pasta, but the flavor is very good, and it has a good texture, too.
