Not sure is allowed (couldn’t see anything in the guidelines but looking for opinions). I picked up with fall shaped pasta in a festive spirit this autumn, and am looking for some good options that would plate well with these.
My pasta experience consists of spaghetti and pesto, though not fully homemade – I’d love to give it a shot though!
Any sauce recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Those would look nice in a simple broth-
Pumpkin spice pesto
I think this sort of pasta is mostly eaten in soup or broth. I can’t really seeing it eating it with anything else, maybe pesto?
Make a Cima di Rape or Broccoli pasta
Butternut squash maybe?
If you have only leant towards making/buying pesto so far I’d suggest making something with roasted chestnuts in the pesto or something that pairs well with it just when whole or chopped. I think that this further increases the emphasis on your British take on pasta with this ingredient as it’s got a British name and is not Italian. Maybe find something harvested soon if you choose to take another direction with the dish ✌️
Soup
Pasta salad
I bet this recipe for pumpkin chipotle pasta would go nicely with it: https://www.budgetbytes.com/chipotle-pumpkin-pasta/
Funny story about this recipe: I was making it for friends and massively underestimated how spicy chipotle peppers are. It came out so spicy that I was the only one who could eat it 💀 so go easy on the chipotle hahah
Where’d you get the pasta tho?
Pumpkin or butternut squash soup
get some fall-shaped sauce
Brown butter sage
