Cooking Tips
🍝 Pasta
- Salt your pasta water generously — it should taste like the sea.
- Save a cup of pasta water before draining to thicken your sauce.
- Cook pasta 1 minute less than the package says for perfect al dente.
Nutrition: Good source of complex carbohydrates and B vitamins. Whole wheat adds fiber.
Storage: Dry pasta lasts 1-2 years. Cooked pasta keeps 3-5 days refrigerated.
🍄 Mushrooms
- Don't wash mushrooms — wipe them with a damp cloth to clean.
- Cook mushrooms in a single layer without crowding for the best sear.
- Add mushrooms to a hot, dry pan first, then add oil after they release moisture.
Nutrition: Low calorie with B vitamins, selenium, and vitamin D (if sun-exposed). One cup has 15 calories.
