Pasta is used in a variety of dishes, such as spaghetti with clams, but it needs to be boiled before using. This article shows how to cook the pasta by boiling.[1]

Ingredients

  • 1 part (by weight) pasta
  • 5-10 parts (by weight) water

Steps

  1. Boil the water. Put the water in a large saucepan and heat over a high heat until bubbles appear.
  2. Add the pasta. Put the pasta to the boiling pasta.
  3. Boil the pasta. Leave to boil until al dente. The time depends on the type of the pasta:

    • 10-12 minutes: Thicker, shorter dried pasta.
  4. Drain the pasta. Pour the pasta into a colander and shake to drain any liquid.
  5. Finished. You can use the cooked pasta in a variety of dishes.
