[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We called it "mostaccioli" growing up. All the midwest Italian families served it at the Catholic church suppers, weddings, and funerals. [/quote] Mostaccioli is stumpier than ziti, isn't it? I feel like we're on the verge of confessing our irrational hatred of certain pasta shapes[/quote] Mostaccioli is angled. Ziti is a straight cut. It is basically the same dish. But in the midwest, tubular pasta in a tomato meat sauce covered in cheese and baked until gooey is called Mostaccioli no matter if they are using ziti or penne pasta. Mostaccioli is the generic "kleenex" word equivalent for this dish of midwest Catholic church suppers.[/quote]
