How can you have too much pasta?
Ah see it wasn’t bread that jesus handed out on the mound it was a small batch of pasta
Start weighing your pasta. You’ll never cook too much again.
Start weighing EVERYTHING. The consistency your dishes reach is crazy good! A weighing scale isn’t that expensive
Do people not use kitchen weights? It’s a very common thing where I live (in Europe)
Hell, I often just use a kitchen weight to measure volume of water instead of using a measuring cup, as 1 liter of water ~= 1 kilogram
americans have to deal with insane units like pints and ounces

I mean yea but last time I made spaghetti all the recipes were like xx weight(cooked). WTF am I supposed to do with that?
You’re supposed to disregard it. Just boil enough pasta for however many servings you want, a serving of dry pasta is 60g. Why are you using a recipe for spaghetti?
To figure out how much pasta to use so I don’t make too much…
I always weigh my pasta. A really large serving of pasta is ~4oz.
Oh well, guess I’m eating pasta this month. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You’re gonna show up in a youtube video.
A 30 year old presented to the E.R. with a bloated stomach and high fever. He claims to have eaten the same pasta for 30 days. As we know, botulism starts to grow on noodles after three days, which means…
Ackchully Clostridium botulinum is an obligate anaerobe from soil and should never grow in conditions of old pasta. The oxygen alone would kill it.
You’re thinking of bacillus cereus, which grows on cooked rice or pasta stored at room temperature.
How to get the correct amount of pasta:
- Get as much as you think is right.
- Wrong.
- Eat it all anyway because pasta is delicious.
Hey Euros. Do you guys buy 250g pasta packages or 500g? We pretty much only sell 1 pound packages in the US which is a little less than 500g.
You don’t have to cook the entire box.
Yes you do, @SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world.
They sell half pound boxes now.
I’ve never seen 8oz pasta in Maryland.
That’s because the pasta industry avoids Maryland. For obvious reasons.
Old Bay pasta salad resulted in an Italian embargo.
It’s a shame really. My heart goes out to the northeast.
500g usually
S friend of mine did that with rice some years ago. Instead of cooking like one cup he filled the pot about halfway. Needless to say, that we got free rice that day.

Slip a bowl of pasta through the closet door every day.
Italian here. That’s not a bug; that’s a feature.
good thing is I can eat pasta 3x as much as I can eat any other food. so to me it’s only 200 servings.
I usually do that with butter beans.
