    Wouldn’t short pasta work better for this?

    More basil. But I can feel the love.

    Looks tasty! If j can share some constructive criticism,looks like the pasta here is being used as bread, rice or potatoes – a “starch” accompanying the rest. Have tour daughter try and bind the pasta to the tomatoes. If you want to make it a cold dish, just cook the pasta, ideally short pasta, cook it less, keep it more al dente, and after its been cooked and went down in temp (dont run water over it), mix it with the tomatoes, some extra oil and maybe a couple drops of cooking water. Then have fun cutting through the burrata on top. This will have the pasta be coated and bound to the wonderful flavours instead of acting as a separate vessel.

    I’ll be the first to just simply say: that looks lovely, hope you enjoyed!

    ooooooh this looks killer!!! though I would suggest adding olive oil to the noodles instead of leaving them sad and dry lol!

    agree that adding basil would be great too

  7. it’s missing basil.

    No, seriously, it is the educated opinion of this particular italian that few things can beat diced, ripe, uncooked tomatoes on pasta (pro tip: dice, salt, mix, let rest for a while in a colander). Summer has ended and the last good ones are sold for a song at my market. If I had the time and the space, it would be semi-industrial tomato sauce time.

    I’m trying to understand your picture in the context of [the recipe you put in your reply](https://www.reddit.com/r/pasta/comments/1nr42js/comment/ngbmnlx/) to the AutoMod.

    >Burrata Cold Pasta 🍝

    >Finely chop tomatoes and onions.

    >Mix the chopped tomatoes and onions with lemon juice, olive oil, pepper, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and parsley.

    >Place cooked pasta (cannellini pasta works well) in a bowl, pour the sauce on top, and add a burrata cheese.

    >Finish with a sprinkle of pepper, and it’s ready to serve!

    [Cannellini are beans](https://www.seriouseats.com/cannellini-bean-recipes-8778572) (white kidney beans). If there’s a pasta with that name, I do apologize; I’ve never heard of it and Google is all, “Um, I think you mean beans.” At any rate, the pasta in the photo appears to be spaghetti.

    There is a pasta called *cannelloni*, but it’s a big tube used in stuffed pasta recipes, more visually similar a manicotti shell: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannelloni](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannelloni)

    Whoever made the food in the photo didn’t pour the sauce on top. They plated the pasta atop the tomatoes. The pasta doesn’t look like it was even treated with any olive oil, but it also doesn’t appear to have clumped.

    Looks lovely. And don’t sleep on cold pasta. I keep a pound of it in the fridge at all times for a quick fix.
