Ive been cooking pasta dishes all my life and some call me the pasta expert, Would you like to learn the way of cooking pasta? 
Yes, please tell me more about the art of cooking pasta.
Well first its very important to know that pastas are divided into two groups, dried ("pasta secca") and fresh ("pasta fresca"). And both have a entire different taste. 
That seems like an important thing to know. What else should I know?
Well pasta originated as an Italian cuisine food from Italy, So if you want the best pasta you have to visit Italy. 
That seems reasonable, is there regional differences in pasta cooking in Italy?
Well not really but pasta is a staple food of talian cuisine, It dates back to 1154 in Sicily. Most Italian pasta is as good though. 
That is quite a long history. Here's a dumb question, what's the difference between spaghetti and pasta?
Well Spaghetti is just a long, thin, solid type of pasta. So its just the same thing but thinner that other pastas.
