Sometimes really hard for us to boiled pasta. the result not always like we want, can be too cooked or maybe not cooked enough. so this is the right way to boiled our pasta
Ingredients :
- 3/4 water from the pot size
- pasta (spaghetti, fussily, fettucine, other pasta)
- 1-2 teaspoon salt
- 3-5 tablespoon cooking oil but I prefer olive oil
Direction :
- Boil the water
- Add salt and cooking oil / olive oil
- Add pasta, stir it, don't let it stick
- To test when the pasta is done, take one, It should be tender but still firm to the bite ("al dente," which means "to the tooth" in Italian). If you can still see a little ring of uncooked pasta in the center of the noodle, it needs another minute or so. But it will continue to cook a little after you remove it from the stove, so keep that in mind.
- When the pasta is done, remove the pot from the burner immediately and carefully pour the contents into a colander in the sink.
- Shake any excess water free over the sink
- If you want, use a couple of drops of olive oil to prevent the pasta from sticking; but if you're saucing the pasta, you really don't need to.
