    Question Where do I find angel hair pasta?

    I have a recipe that requires angel hair pasta, and I cannot find it at my supermarket. I assume it's with all the other noodles/pasta, but I can't see it there. Am I looking in right spot? Or is there an alternative pasta I can use?

    I have always been able to find it with all the other pasta. It's is just a really really fine spaghetti - some brands will call it angel hair pasta and others will have a number sequence for each thickness of spaghetti

    I think it is also in one of the larger bags, like what you find pasta shells or spirals in, and not the long packet that you get the spaghetti in, if you know what i mean?

    I shop at Woolies. Okay, so it's basically very fine spaghetti... I'll have another look today, thanks .

    We have San Remo, it's in the long bag like all of the spag noodles. I get mine in the same section as all the others.....perhaps they are just out. Otherwise they should all have it. I looooooooooooove angel hair pasta, it's so yummy with spag bol, it's the only one we use now.

    Barilla do it straight like spaghetti, but the Sam remo on is in a bag in a nest-like formation. I prefer the Barilla one as the nested one can end up broken in the bag and you have heaps of short bits

    I always thought it was another name for vermicelli.
