- pasta
- basil (optional)
- butter (optional)
Make it lactose-friendly
- butter (optional) → plant butter, ghee (mostly lactose-free), or olive oil
Steps
- Fill a large pot about half or 3/4th full with water.
- Salt the water profusely. The rule of thumb is that water for boiling pasta should taste as salty as the sea.
- Bring water to a rolling boil.
- Now add pasta.
- Keep it boiling, but decrease heat as it tries to overflow.
- Wait until pasta is at the preferred softness (see below), then strain it.
- While the pasta is sitting in your strainer, you may add basil leaves or other herbs and aromatics. I also recommend taking a knob or so of room temperature butter and add it in and stirring it, melting it into the pasta.
