Pasta has become an acceptable and domineering food-piece of most Nigerian homes, due to its unique taste and ease of preparation. It is a staple food, which originated from Asia in the 9th century and then spread to Europe, the Far East and the rest of the world with the major primary ingredient of production being wheat. Typically, pasta is a noodle made from unleavened dough of durum wheat flour mixed with water and formed into sheets or various shapes. It can be made with flour from other cereals or grains, and eggs may be used instead of water.
