​Failproof Pasta Cooking - March 2019

Any pasta that is not the instant kind can be used for this. Place pasta in cold salted water that is about 4cm above the level of the pasta. Allow it to soak 1.5 hours. Drain and add more salt, then cover with boiling water in micro safe dish. Place in microwave for 1 minute and allow to steep for another 2minutes. The pasta will be cooked perfectly aldente. If you are making a casserole to put in the oven you don't need to use the boiling water, just put it in the oven in the casserole and it will cook in the hot liquid in a few minutes. No mess to clean up and saves electricity.
