Fettuccini made of courgette with spinach sauce

Espaguetis de calabacines con salsa de espinacas

Since the time of Cato, basic pasta dough has been made mostly of wheat flour. The consumption of pasta has changed over time; it was once a small, simple item, but it is now often eaten in much larger portions and as part of complex, sophi sticated dishes. Courgette, like all squash, has its ancestry in the Americas. However, the varieties of squash typically called "zucchini" were developed in Italy, many generations after their introduction from the "New World".
