Cheese wheel pasta<\/strong>, also known as pasta alla ruota or pasta dalla forma, is a dramatic pasta dish where hot pasta is tossed in a bowl made from a hollowed-out wheel of cheese<\/a>. As the pasta hits the carved cheese walls, it melts more cheese into the noodles creating a decadent, cheesy dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This style of pasta preparation and serving seems to have become popular in the last decade, though its origins may date back centuries.
