Pasta type of cuisine produced from an unleavened dough of wheat flour combined with water or eggs and mold into sheets or various shapes, then boil or bak. Rice flour or legumes like beans or lentils are sometimes substituted for wheat flour to achieve a distinct flavor and texture, or as a gluten-free option. Pasta is a traditional Italian dish.

Pasta is classified into two types: dried and fresh pasta. The majority of dry pasta is made commercially using an extrusion method, although it can also be made at home. Fresh pasta is usually made by hand, though it can also be done with the use of modest equipment. Fresh pasta sold in supermarkets is made on a commercial scale by large-scale machinery.
