Fear not the mass of noodles, nor thine anxiety over the mountains of starch thy must consume, my son.
Tomorrow it will all be pasta tense.
Spaghetti? Do this 👌. A portion is more or less what fits between the thumb and the index. Anything else is excess.
Side note: Only works with average size hands, I can fit more than a pound of dry spaghetti between thumb and index
Finally I’ve found someone whose hands match my stomach!
The sequel to this meme would be the wizard sitting the other way
“And I ate it all in one serving”
How can you have too much pasta?
Never happened to me
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.
So a half batch
No matter how much pasta you make, you’re obligated to eat it in a single sitting.
This is the way.
This is the way I die.I have a couple pastas that make good leftovers, but if I’m not planning on them I’ll gorge myself on the entire four person meal of pasta
Not like this…slurp…not like this…
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.
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.
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’m a scientist, metric is practically my 2nd language.
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…
Ah see it wasn’t bread that jesus handed out on the mound it was a small batch of pasta
Did pasta exist in Jesus’ time? I don’t think they mention it much in the Bible.
That’s ok – you just don’t need to cook for a nearest year or so if your family is of size of 2.
How do I make my family of size 2?
Take a lesson from Anakin
I don’t know, catch a woman, close her in the closet. Something like that. No idea, how would I know?
Slip a bowl of pasta through the closet door every day.
No problem. Means I’ll get fried noodles tomorrow.
