It’s a few hours till October in my part of the world… hhmmm, almost Christmas as we Filipinos back home would think. But I’m thinking so far ahead, as it’s only September. Anyway, here are servings of pasta for all you from Presto Pasta Nights, that I am hosting this weekend.

First, Tandy from Lavender and Lime, shares with us how to make homemade pasta nero. I didn’t realize you could buy just the squid ink in sachets already. I always that if I make my own squid ink pasta, I would have to buy several fresh squid and extract their ink!

Heather, of girlichef talks about patitsio and stitches. Rather make it Pastitchio!

And here’s my favorite comfort food – the Filipino sopas – creamy pasta soup that is perfect after a long day among the corn fields.

Thanks for reading my blog. I'm a corn breeder who also loves to eat and cook. Most of the recipes in this blog are dishes that I have cooked in my own kitchen. This blog is an off shoot way way back in 2007 when as PhD student, I had a major writer's block for writing my dissertation. So instead I turned into blogging my exploits in the kitchen. I've come long way then. getting my PhD and currently cooking in my third kitchen so far. My dog, named Pasta and I are based in Phitsanulok, Thailand.

The roundup may be light on dishes but not on flavor. Thanks so much for hosting Presto Pasta Night Roundup this week.

I’ve never tried colored [asta before (that with squid ink). I’ve always wondered how tasty it would be. I’ve seen Korean eat such pasta. Thanks for dropping by my blog:-)
