Tour Scotland Travel Video Quorn And Mushroom Supreme Scone By Perth Perthshire

Tour Scotland travel video Blog of Quorn and Mushroom Supreme with Fussilli Pasta and Beetroot in my cottage in Scone by Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. Thought I would share some of my favourite meals and food I cook with you. Fusilli are a variety of pasta that are formed into corkscrew or helical shapes. The word fusilli presumably comes from fuso meaning spindle, as traditionally it is " spun " by pressing and rolling a small rod over the thin strips of pasta to wind them around it in a corkscrew shape. In addition to plain and whole wheat varieties, as with any pasta, other colours can be made by mixing other ingredients into the dough, which also affects the flavour, for example, beetroot or tomato for red, spinach for green, and cuttlefish ink for black. The term fusilli is also used to describe a short, extruded, twisted pasta known as rotini in the United States.
