Pasta (us: , uk: ; italian pronunciation: [ˈpasta]) is a type of food typically made from an unleavened dough of wheat flour mixed with water or eggs, and formed into sheets or other shapes, then cooked by boiling or baking. rice flour, or legumes such as beans or lentils, are sometimes used in place of wheat flour to yield a different taste and texture, or as a gluten-free alternative. pasta is a staple food of italian cuisine.pastas are divided into two broad categories: dried (pasta secca) and fresh (pasta fresca). most dried pasta is produced commercially via an extrusion process, although it can be produced at home. fresh pasta is traditionally produced by hand, sometimes with the aid of simple machines. fresh pastas available in grocery stores are produced commercially by large-scale machines. both dried and fresh pastas come in a number of shapes and varieties, with 310 specific forms known by over 1,300 documented names. in italy, the names of specific pasta shapes or types often vary by locale. for example, the pasta form cavatelli is known by 28 different names depending upon the town and region. common forms of pasta include long and short shapes, tubes, flat shapes or sheets, miniature shapes for soup, those meant to be filled or stuffed, and specialty or decorative shapes.as a category in italian cuisine, both fresh and dried pastas are classically used in one of three kinds of prepared dishes: as pasta asciutta (or pastasciutta), cooked pasta is plated and served with a complementary sauce or condiment; a second classification of pasta dishes is pasta in brodo, in which the pasta is part of a soup-type dish. a third category is pasta al forno, in which the pasta is incorporated into a dish that is subsequently baked in the oven. pasta dishes are generally simple, but individual dishes vary in preparation. some pasta dishes are served as a small first course or for light lunches, such as pasta salads. other dishes may be portioned larger and used for dinner. pasta sauces similarly may vary in taste, color and texture.in terms of nutrition, cooked plain pasta is 31% carbohydrates (mostly starch), 6% protein, and low in fat, with moderate amounts of manganese, but pasta generally has low micronutrient content. pasta may be enriched or fortified, or made from whole grains.

Beef

Beef is the culinary name for meat from cattle (bos taurus). in prehistoric times, humans hunted aurochs and later domesticated them. since that time, numerous breeds of cattle have been bred specifically for the quality or quantity of their meat. today, beef is the third most widely consumed meat in the world, after pork and poultry. as of 2018, the united states, brazil, and china were the largest producers of beef. beef can be prepared in various ways; cuts are often used for steak, which can be cooked to varying degrees of doneness, while trimmings are often ground or minced, as found in most hamburgers. beef contains protein, iron, and vitamin b12. along with other kinds of red meat, high consumption is associated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer and coronary heart disease, especially when processed. beef has a high environmental impact, being a primary driver of deforestation with the highest greenhouse gas emissions of any agricultural product.

A camel (from: latin: camelus and greek: κάμηλος (kamēlos) from semitic: gāmāl.) is an even-toed ungulate in the genus camelus that bears distinctive fatty deposits known as "humps" on its back. camels have long been domesticated and, as livestock, they provide food (milk and meat) and textiles (fiber and felt from hair). camels are working animals especially suited to their desert habitat and are a vital means of transport for passengers and cargo. there are three surviving species of camel. the one-humped dromedary makes up 94% of the world's camel population, and the two-humped bactrian camel makes up 6%. the wild bactrian camel is a separate species and is now critically endangered. the word camel is also used informally in a wider sense, where the more correct term is "camelid", to include all seven species of the family camelidae: the true camels (the above three species), along with the "new world" camelids: the llama, the alpaca, the guanaco, and the vicuña, which belong to the separate tribe lamini camelids originated in north america during the eocene, with the ancestor of modern camels, paracamelus, migrating across the bering land bridge into asia during the late miocene, around 6 million years ago.
