You only need enough water to cover the noodles and it's way faster than boiling a lake's worth of water in a pot and doing the whole "try to fold the pasta into the water as fast as possible so it cooks evenly" dance. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] psud@aussie.zone 6 points 2 years ago You can leave them full length with only a third of the length in the water, they quickly soften and slump and the rest can be immersed permalink fedilink source parent [–] nBodyProblem@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago Did you know they don’t eat garlic bread in Italy?
