How To Cook Noodles


How To Cook Noodles




Fast, practical and loved by everyone, pasta is not a difficult dish to cook, but it is important to be aware of some important tips to be worthy of a “nonna”.

1 - Lots of water,  salt and no oil

The ideal is to put 1 liter of water in the pan for every 100g of dough, nothing to save.


Salt should be added to the water as soon as it starts to boil and, under no circumstances, use oil or olive oil (except for stuffed pasta). It only serves to make the noodles heavy!


 2 – Whole pasta and boiling water

The noodles should only be placed in the water when it is boiling. And don't break the dough: put them whole and keep stirring until they soften and fit in the pan.


3 – “Al dente”

The perfect spot for pasta is the “al dente”: cooked and firm pasta.


Each type has its ideal cooking time and it is super important to pay attention to the instructions on the package. Fresh pasta usually cooks a little longer.


4 – Drain, add the sauce and serve quickly

Good noodles are those that have just come out of the pan. If your dough is ready, drain without washing in cold water, mix in the sauce and serve.


If the dish has no sauce, it is important to add a little oil to the pasta so that it does not stick.


5 – And if left over?

Noodles are not that kind of food for the next day. But, if left over, keep the dough cold in the refrigerator and quickly place it in a pan of boiling water when reusing.


Ready! How about making your own pasta at home?

How To Make Burger

How To Make Burger   A well-made burger can be as tasty a meal as a restaurant dish.  But to do that, you need to forgo the convenience of fast food and frozen burger steaks – for a really good burger, you need to make your own steak.  The secret to a delicious burger steak is balancing lean meat with meat with more fat.  It is very important to bring fat to the burger steak, otherwise it will be too dry and hard – and the burger sweet spot is moist and tender.  So don't worry that the burger won't be greasy, as the fat will melt when you roast or fry it, giving the meat a lot of flavor.  To make the homemade burger, we will use the following ingredients: 500 grams of ground beef or prime stew or a lean meat like duckling 500 grams of ground beef or second-rate stew or meat with more fat 1 large white onion 2 garlic cloves salt to taste Black pepper to taste The preparation is relatively simple:  the first step is to chop the onion and garlic finely, very small.  Then, in a lar

How To Make Ice Cream

How To Make Ice Cream After I learned how to make this homemade ice cream, here at home there is no more purchased ice cream (a lie! In industrialized ice cream, besides vegetable fat and butter (yes, you can take both), there is a range of artificial products that are only bad for our bodies. This one has a little less crap hahahaha. This ice cream is light and does not leave that layer of fat in your mouth! I've already tested several ice cream recipes, but this is the closest to industrialized ice cream in terms of texture (for those who don't have an ice cream maker). I made strawberry because it's her husband's favorite (when is this man going to acquire the taste of grown-ups, huh?). Let's go to the recipe that is easy and yields 1 2l pot and another small pot (it should have about 200ml). 1st step Blend in a blender for 3 minutes: 1/2 liter of milk 1 teaspoon of neutral alloy 1/2 cup of sugar Place on an aluminum baking sheet or small glass dish and place in
