Annoyance: How do you pronounce mostaccioli?
Why do some people insist on pronouncing it something like “muskacholli”? Does this irritate anyone else?
The proper pronounciation is below. Taken from the encyclopedia on www.food.com.
Definition: [mos-tah-chee-OH-lee] Large, 2 inch-long macaroni tubes–”mustaches”–cut on the diagonal. Mostaccioli can have either a ridged or plain surface. See also macaroni; pasta.
Yeah that would bug me, just like my Aunt who can’t say Parmesan and insists upon calling paramecium. That just drives me nuts.
