Use a short wide pan and just barely keep the noodles covered. You will get better pasta, easier cacio e Pepe and reduced energy costs related to pasta.

- portaouflop 2y agoI heard this a lot but when I actually try it like go describes my pasta gets mushy and mealy - what am I doing wrong?
- mgaunard 2y agotemperature too low?
- douglee650 2y agoPasta being overcooked. Also may be using lower quality pasta.
- bromuro 2y agoI’m Italian, and I don’t have any insults for you until you overcook your pasta or cook it unevenly.
- fph 2y agoNot sure about the energy costs: surely a short wide pan dissipates more heat than the classical pasta pot.
- gavindean90 2y agoYou could be right but if you do it in a large pasta pot so only put in enough water to cover the noodles. No more. Add more if needed as the noodles soak the water.
