I just boil barilla penne in my little rice cooker.

Put in the water, bit of salt, bit of pepper, bit of italian seasoning.

Bring to rolling boil. (this takes ~10min w/ my rice cooker)

Add pasta.

Do nothing, the pasta stirs itself because rolling boil, wait 5 minutes.

Get mitts, keep the lid on the cooker bowl thing, pour out 90%-95% of the water through the vent hole on the lid. Should take another minute or two to empty the water this way.

Slap what remains into a bowl.

Now presumably you also have some pre grated or shredded cheese, as well as some kind of italian sausage or something grilling up on a skillet... flash it if you have to, sear it a bit maybe, the pour marinara over the skillet.

Stir occasionally for maybe 2 minutes, at high heat, now dump all that onto the penne, and then sprinkle on the cheese.

Kablamo, italian pasta from a rice cooker.


Now... the real 'chef's kiss'... also have some italian bread that you've lightly braised with olive oil, dusted with a cheese crumble, and then toasted. Then, have olive oil and/or balsamic vinaggrette as a dipping sauce.

Bellissimo.

You can also dip the toasted bread into the pasta, no one is stopping you.


But yeah basically the trick with pasta is... don't involve the pasta untill the water is well good and angrily boiling.

bread that you've lightly braised

You "lightly" sear and slow-simmer your bread? That must make it hard to toast afterwards...

i mean i'll try premixing some italian seasoning and putting it in with my pasta, but your recipe scares me. why do i have to be naked in front of my pasta bacon? i've tried that. i have a scar (on my eyeball, so it's not like the clothes would have helped, but like maybe the grease wouldn't have popped so excitedly had my junk not been exposed) from baconing nakey.

Flashing your meats by way of cooking naked; it causes their muscle fibers to relax, as they now know you're not a threat (like showing your "underbelly"). Now you can get a really good sear and lock-in the juices, as you and your meats reach an understanding of mutual vulnerability. You just can't show any fear though, so no aprons allowed. Trust is essential for tenderness, and vice versa

I'm gonna get such a burn, aren't i

... it is extremely funny that you extrapolated from that, that I cook naked.

... Because I actually do, quite often, now that you bring it up.

Teaches you to be precise and delicate, very quickly.

But uh yeah, I would at least wear an apron for bacon, anything with popping grease... sorry about your scar.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago

sorry about your scar.

i'm not. it looks cool.
