One of the reasons to make pasta is that you can cook dinner in just 15 minutes. If you want to get pleasure from cooking and mastering pasta, our advice is to always buy high quality ones.

Yes, they are more expensive, but it's not a huge expense. Poor quality pasta will get sticky after cooking. The best pasta is made from durum wheat. Therefore, when buying, follow the product labels.

1. Always use a large container. Remember the number 225! 2.25 liters of water correspond to 225 grams of pasta. Add a tablespoon of salt. Before putting the paste in the water, make sure it boils. After placing the pasta, stir only once to separate the pasta.

2. You do not need to cover the container with a lid. The water boils quickly and there is a danger of it coming out of the vessel and flooding the stove. Time it. High quality pasta is cooked in 8-10 to 12 minutes. But the cooking time depends on the shape and quality of the pasta. Therefore, the only sure way to check if the paste is ready is to try it. Try 8, 9, 10 minutes and so on.

3. Once the pasta is cooked, use a sieve to drain the water. First, rinse the sieve with hot water to prepare it for draining the paste. Do not drain absolutely all the water, but leave a little at the bottom of the dish so that the pasta does not dry out.

4. Always serve them in slightly heated plates. It is good to hold the spaghetti with special tongs and always lift them high enough before placing them on the plates to separate the individual spaghetti.
