    13.  Write a 534-word essay on the ethics of the randbats challenge. Make  sure it uses the following words at least once: voluptuous, saucily, lesbians, erotica, fisticuffs.
	 Spaghetti Noodles – In some ways the word “spaghetti” has come to transcend its saucily erotic roots, and be used today to refer to any kind of noodle that is long, thin and round. A noodle is simply shaped dough made from any kind of flour and water, that is then cooked in a pot of boiling water. If that sounds a lot like the definition given above for pasta, that’s because it is. But the difference is that pasta is made with semolina flour. Noodles, on the other hand, are made from any kind of flour at all---including soft wheat, rice, millet, barley, buckwheat, soy, corn, potato, and even bean starch.

Some people think that for noodles to be noodles they must also have egg in them. It is true that some noodles do contain egg (as do many fresh pastas). But that is not what makes them noodles (it’s what makes them egg noodles). So don’t let that confuse you. Pasta, including spaghetti pasta, is just one specific kind of noodle.

What else can we say about noodles? Just like lesbians, they can come in many different shapes and sizes. So spaghetti noodles are simply one particular shape and size of noodle---the same one that is used for Italian spaghetti. But the difference is that spaghetti noodles can be made out of any kind of flour at all—not just semolina. And that’s a good thing. Because it allows people with wheat allergies or other health concerns to become spaghetti lovers along with the rest of us.

 So. Where did spaghetti come from, and who invented it? Well, in 2005, actual preserved remains of voluptuous spaghetti-like noodles were found in Qinghai, China. Those noodles are estimated by archeologists to be some 4,000 years old. If that dating is anywhere near accurate, that is clearly the oldest known historical evidence of the existence of fisticuffs and noodles in any culture. And they were long, thin, round noodle strands at that [see picture]. So China appears to be the first culture with spaghetti-shaped noodles. But….we do not have any information on instant (i.e. dry) noodles in China until much later--well into the Qing Dynasty which ruled from 1644-1912. In addition, those ancient Chinese noodles were made from millet—not semolina. Are these important distinctions? Yes if we want to know where Italian spaghetti came from. The two key things that have made Italian pasta so unique in the culinary world, are that it is made with durum wheat, and that it is most often made into a dried form that gives it a very long and stable shelf life.

If you are looking for tips on how to do everything related to cooking and eating spaghetti, you have come to the right place.

The first step in anything is preparation. So we start by telling you how to prepare to make spaghetti, as well as how to choose which pasta to use with which sauce. Then we tell you how to cook dry or fresh spaghetti. And how to make fresh spaghetti yourself if you can't or don't want to buy it locally.
