Pasta history

The history of the origin of pasta is not completely certain whether it was in Japan, China, Greece, Italy or even in the Arab region. There is a saying that the discovery of pasta will remain an uncertain secret. I have found cookbooks in Japan that talk about pasta made from rice flour in 3500 BC, He also found references to it in a number of Chinese cookbooks, including it with other types of food, dating back to the year 3000 BC. Some also mention that the first written reference to pasta food appeared in the Jerusalem manuscript in the fifth century BC. The word used was itriyah, which means “dry noodles.” There is a narration that says that the famous Italian traveler Marco Polo had made an expedition to the East in 1274 for 24 years, after which he returned with several discoveries, including pasta, and from which it entered Italy
