How to cook and serve our pasta
To cook
Fill a large saucepan of boiling salted water. Use
1 litre of water per 100g of pasta. There is no need
to add oil to the water.
Add the pasta and stir once gently. To avoid breaking the pasta do not try separating it with a wooden or metal spoon. The pasta will separate by itself as soon as it gets hydrated.
Bring back to boil and simmer just below boiling point. Avoid hard boiling.
Use a slotted or skimming spoon to gently remove the
pasta from the water.
