January 5, 2007, Newsletter Issue #92: Pasta Pot
Tip of the Week
Most Italian kitchens will have this…a pasta pot!
A straight-sided pot with an inner perforated draining basket, with handles. Sizes differ, so choose one that suits your needs. A 5 or 6-quart pot is a good size to have; you can decrease the amount of water in the pot if you are only cooking for two. A light-weight one if possible so as not to be too heavy once filled with water. Once water comes to a boil, simply place the pasta in the basket. When done to taste, pick up basket by the handles, shake to drain pasta, and add to sauce. I cannot imagine my kitchen without my pasta pot. It can also be used to prepare stock or to steam vegetables.
