While TikTok is most famous for its dances and pranks, the food genre has also been a boon for home cooks. From hacks to easy weeknight dinner recipes, these are the most innovative pasta recipes that went viral thanks to TikTok.
1. Baked pasta with feta cheese
For this easy and fresh recipe, all you need is a block of feta cheese, cherry tomatoes, salt and pepper, olive oil, and the pasta of your choice. Put all of our ingredients in a 400 Fahrenheit baking dish and meanwhile cook your noodles, garnish with basil if you like. Once the feta has baked for about half an hour, it will be creamy enough to coat the pasta. You can also swap these cheeses for Boursin if you don’t like feta.
2. Rigatoni Pie Honeycomb Pasta
This pasta is basically baked ziti in the form of a cake, and we’re definitely not mad about it. When cut, the pasta forms a honeycomb that will look very impressive on your Instagram feed. To make it, you need a springform pan, which holds each noodle upright while it bakes.
3. Egg yolk ravioli
This recipe from Ariana Feygin is a one-of-a-kind wonder that you’ll want to cook for your dinner guests every time. It requires you to make some homemade pasta dough and cut it with a kitchen cutter. Then, she adds ricotta (mixed with Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and lemon zest) to her ravioli. Make a well and place an egg yolk in it. Seal the ravioli and boil for three minutes, serve with brown butter sage sauce. Who doesn’t love a runny egg?
4. Lasaña sin hervir
La lasaña es excelente, pero hervir esos fideos antes y luego hacer una estructura en capas con ellos en una fuente para hornear puede llevar mucho tiempo. Simplemente coloque los fideos uniformemente y agregue más salsa para remojar en el agua. Esto mantendrá los fideos un poco al-dente y eliminará la molestia de hervirlos. Woks con lasaña normal y lista para el horno.
5. Pasta con camarones Bang Bang
