Ah, yes. Tiger meat. Quite the Chinese delicacy but you do have to boil it to make it edible.
As he persisted, I was obliged to tootle him gently at first and then, seeing no improvement, to trumpet him vigorously with my horn.

It looks good, but that requires a BIG pot of water to be boiling in order to cook it without breaking the spaghetti.

I keep on procrastinating to do that just because of the reasoning of the boiling of the spaghetti..... but one day on day...

I am definitely going to put that in front of my SO one of these days! I've got a humungous jam-making pan which would do the trick!

Good Halloween food... maybe add a bit of food colouring in the boiling water...

Looks like spaghetti and HK:n sininen lenkki made in an artistic way

The missus tried it last night with our 2 and 3 year old. Not terribly successful.

How does the part of the spaghetti inside the sausage get enough water to cook?
My guess is the sausage will end up with a lot of raw pasta inside it.

It probably cooks eventually, but by that time the rest of it is certailny past "al dente"...

Or maybe you have to pre-cook the middle parts of the spaghetti under a stream of boiling water? :ochesey:

Maybe but the bangers are full of fat which the raw pasta should soak up in a few minutes.

On the other hand, piercing the sausages could cause them to split in the boiling water, in which case the dish would just look a (total) mess.

I think I will try with thin sausages first. Like frankfurters for example.

The pasta broke so the animals ended up mostly bald. The pasta inside the sausage wasn't too al-dente. It was Finnish sausage, so not especially fatty.

I think when cooking you should first dangle it to soften the hanging pasta, then dump it in the pot.
