Basics: Fresh Pasta

Recipe Ingredients

16 cups	3792ml	Water
4 teaspoons	20ml	Salt
1 lb	454g / 16oz	Fresh pasta

Recipe Instructions

Basics for new cooks: In large pot, cover and bring water and salt to full rolling boil. Stir in pasta, separating pieces; return to boil and boil, uncovered and stirring occasionally, for 1-3 minutes or until tender but firm. Drain well.

Tip: If a sauce is to be served on pasta, do not rinse. The starch on the surface of the pasta will allow the sauce to cling to the pasta.
