COOKING

When it's time to cook the pasta, it's essential that you read the instructions on the package. Different types of pasta require varying cooking times, especially when you're working with artisanal products. Place the pasta in boiling water, and don't forget to add a drizzle of olive oil and a bit of salt. Another extremely important tip: never break the pasta! Always use a pot suitable to the size of whatever you're going to prepare.
