I only really eat Barilla, and do it a minute less than they say on the packet for al dente. Rolling boil first, salt, chuck pasta in, stir it so they get a good coating, cover, stir every other minute, drain immediately then mix into whatever sauce I'm cooking (or sauce into the pot with the pasta) to cook it in for a minute. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago* (1 child) Guess what, it's exactly the same as the much cheaper store brand stuff. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ABCDE@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago (2 children) It is not. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [+] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago* [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent [–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 0 points 3 years ago* (1 child) It sure is.
