The beauty of the preparation is the noodle that everything you need is boiling water.
Even if you can have only one pan, you still see a wide variety of pasta dishes only by boiling or cooking pasta properly.
The right way is, of course, Al Dente: Firm, are only slightly crunchy. Yes, they are slightly crispy. Pasta is incredible nutty flavor can be achieved only when they are particularly strong is cooked. I know, I know could be so foreign to most people, but once you have tasted pasta, which really AlDente, you will understand why the Italians love pasta.
So is the essence of boiling water. In particular, well-salted boiling water. How much water depends on how much you cook pasta. A lot of water is best, but even if you are angry about a small pan, you are not limited to all your needs pasta is boiling, salted water.
In a perfect world, a large, oversized pot would be best. But if you cook, say, enjoy a pound of pasta for a group, including an eight -Cup / two quart pan do just fine. Yes, do eight cups, or two liters of water, the trick for a pound of pasta.
Bring the water to cook on the highest and can leave it at that temperature. Add more salt (I recommend sea salt for flavoring and minerals), so you can taste it just in the water. Too much salt is as bad as too little salt.
Once the water bubbling boil add the noodles and stir vigorously in the pan until it boil again.
Here isan old pro, cook pasta trick, if you cook spaghetti or any type of long noodles. Break the noodles in the center before dropping into the pan. It is not only perfect, but it cooks evenly. You are not the fact that the pasta to boil and turn into the pan, which takes about one minutes. Their pasta is the same perfect al dente (firm, slightly hard, slightly crispy) texture all the way through. Furthermore, it is much easier to eat. FurthermoreSauces takes much better as a foot long, plus pasta.
Most packages noodles recommend that you cook the noodles for a certain number of minutes. In almost all cases, if it be written in English, you are invited to cook much about their pasta al dente stage. Why? Since most Americans used to be cooked pasta in restaurants, prepared hours in advance (gag!) Are warming up and in a refrigerator with your sauce when you order.
Or they are used to (Oh my God!no) canned pasta. So you can use as a template during the cooking time is the key to perfect Drain pasta to the minute it begins to fold easily and still has a bit of crunchiness to it. The only way to achieve this is to keep an eye on him. Stir it regularly as it cooks and then test it with a fork or spoon. Remember, when you drain the pasta is cooking to keep for themselves alone. Over time, you add it to your sauce or accompaniment, over medium heat in a pan, itcontinue to cook as well. This technique is called in the kneecap or in a pan, in Italian.
Big macaroni products (ziti, farfalle, rotini) takes a little longer than varieties of spaghetti to cook. The thinner the pasta variety, the less time it takes to cook al dente. Spaghettini can take less than two minutes to cook, if you do it right in the kneecap goal, where she continues to cook or mitigate.
And never, never, never rinse pasta. They destroy the taste,they soften and destroy the ultimate pasta experience. So remember, never, never, never rinse pasta.
Another excellent professional pasta is cooking tip is to save a cup or so of the cooking water before draining in the event that your pasta needs more moisture, when you add it to your sauce or accompaniment. Addition of fresh water will destroy the pasta tastes as if you've rinsed it. So, just in case, hold a cup of boiling water handy.
If this sounds like acomplicated process than it used to relax, I assure you, it's easy when you have tried the technique only once.
