NOTE: Macaroni is
machine-made dry commercial pasta, usually small pasta tubes cut into short
pieces.
Thomas Jefferson is credited
with bringing the first macaroni machine to the United States in 1789 when
he returned home after serving as ambassador to France.
In the North America this
pasta is customarily prepared by baking it with Cheddar cheese or American
cheese and the resulting dish is called macaroni and cheese. |
