意大利食物以健康、可口和容易烹飪聞名于世。大家想到意大利食物，最先浮現在腦海的一定是比薩和意大利面。今天我們就來看看如何烹制出一份地道的意大利面。
Spaghetti is a delicious Italian meal that most kids will love. In fact, adults and kids alike will surely enjoy a spaghetti lunch or dinner any day. The problem, however, in most spaghetti dishes is the soggy pasta. A lot of cooks tend to overcook spaghetti and thus ruin the whole taste. They say that the best way to cook spaghetti is to cook it al dente. This means it should be slightly chewy and not pasty. Lets learn how to cook spaghetti noodles al dente.
When you purchase your spaghetti pasta, you will see cooking instructions on the label. Make sure that you check the instructions and follow them carefully as these instructions already teach you how to cook that specific pasta al dente. At the same time, these labels already include the quantity of water and the time youll need to cook it. So its very important to refer to the label instructions to come up with spaghetti noodles al dente.
Perhaps another thing that you always tend to forget is to cook enough for the number of people eating. Generally, 500 grams of pasta is good for 4 people. If you look at a bundle of dry noodles, the diameter of about a US quarter coin will yield 1 cup.
Now if you are cooking the spaghetti, make sure that you have a good sized pan large enough to allow the pasta eonough space. This will avoid your pasta sticking together or sticking to the pan. Another technique to avoid this is to add oil. Once your water boils, add oil as you add in your pasta too. Its also best to toss your pasta every now and then to avoid sticking. Use tongs or chopsticks so you dont ruin the noodles.
For 500 grams of pasta, you will need to pour in about 4liters of water for boiling. However, it will be best to check on your pastas label for instructions as it may vary. At the same time, if cooking about 500 grams of pasta, add about 2 tablespoons of salt. Salt allows of your pasta noodles to cook evenly. Add it after the water boils and not before. Adding salt prior to boiling will require much longer time to boil.
When timing your pasta, make sure to add the noodles once the water bolls. Dont cover the pan for al dente pasta. It will take about 6 to 7 minutes for small servings. For large amounts, about 10 minutes will do. Again, its best to look at the instructions in the pastas packaging.
Now, to determine whether your noodles are already cooked al dente, make sure that you taste a piece of the spaghetti as soon as the recommended time is finished. It should be slightly chewy and when you look at the piece youve bitten, there must be a small white dot in the center.
If youre still cooking the sauce, make sure that you drain your noodles first and run cold water on them to stop the heating process. If you dont let it cool right away, it will continue to heat and cook and give you soggy noodles, taking away the al dente texture.
