If you tell someone you’re going to make a pasta and rice dish they’d look at you like you have 2 heads most likely. But if you say you’re making an orzo and rice dish there might be some surprise but much more mild. I know why, it’s just our perception of what pasta is. But still

Thats cause orzo more resembles rice imo

Shape wise it more resembles typical rice yeah, but it’s still pasta Its more that for most of us pasta is usually spaghetti and it’s similar variations when we hear pasta rather than just thinking of the ingredients and cooking methods that make up pasta, even though there’s many other types of pasta than long spaghetti like ones.

It definitely has a similar shape to rice, just mildly fatter. There’s plenty of varieties of pasta but orzo is definitely an outlier appearance wise

I’m not that sure, looking at Wikipedia’s list of pastas long ones seem to be less common than short ones. And some look pretty similar to orzo. So I would consider orzo an outlier pasta wise.

Ngl I didn’t know quite how many kinds of pastas there were until just now. I knew there were a fair amount but not as many as I saw
