Pasta is such a dish, which is eaten with great enthusiasm by children as well as adults. Whereas earlier it was made only in restaurants or on special occasions, now people are making it in every home in their own way. Well, everyone makes pasta in their own way. But while making it, many people make a small mistake, which spoils both the look and taste of the pasta and that mistake is often regarding the correct amount of salt. Many people add too little or too much salt while boiling pasta, which spoils the overall taste.
Actually, the real taste of pasta does not come only from its sauce or spices, but is also determined to a great extent by the salt added during boiling. In such a situation, it is very important for you to know the quantity of salt. Recently, Master Chef Pankaj Bhadauria has shared a video explaining when, how and how much salt should be added while boiling pasta.
How much salt is needed when boiling pasta?
Master Chef Pankaj Bhadauria is very active on Instagram. Where she also gives cooking tips along with recipes. Recently the chef has told what should be the right amount of salt while boiling to make perfect pasta. According to Pankaj, there should be so much salt in the water that it appears as salty as sea water.
Know the right way to boil pasta
Boiling the pasta is the first and most difficult step. One should always take a big vessel for boiling pasta. Because pasta does not get open space to cook in small utensils, due to which it may remain raw. Some people add salt in water as soon as they add it. Which is the wrong way. Always add salt only when the water comes to a boil. This dissolves the salt well and adds flavor to each piece of pasta.
Keep these things in mind
Many people complain that the pasta either breaks or starts sticking after boiling. Therefore, it is not necessary to just add salt to water. You also have to mix a little oil in water. Apart from this, when the pasta is cooked, wash it once with cold water and you can apply a little oil on top as well. Due to this the pasta does not stick and each piece is clean, smooth and cooked.
