How to Cook Perfect Pasta
STEP 1
Undercook the pasta by about 2 minutes. While it may not seem like a drastic change, cutting this time short ensures that the pasta maintains an essential chewiness which we need in a good pasta dish.
STEP 2
Then, finish up by cooking the pasta in the sauce, which ideally you've been simmering in a skillet on another burner. What this technique does is ensures that you are giving the pasta 1 to 3 minutes to absorb the flavors of the sauce. You will undoubtedly love that flavor-infused pasta!
