Pasta at first glance seems to be such a simple dish that even a schoolboy can handle it.

However, we forget that with proper cooking, you have to adhere to a number of rules and nuances if you want to get a side dish of decent quality as a result.

For some housewives, pasta always turns out elastic and tasty, while for others, the side dish sticks together, overcooked and generally looks unappetizing.

Not everyone knows that the final result largely depends on the use of the lid for the pan.

Should it be used?

Many people cover pasta just out of habit, drawing an analogy with the preparation of many other dishes and side dishes.

However, this is a gross mistake.

This pasta never tastes good.

Professional chefs always cook pasta with the lid open. Do not forget that you will have to control the entire cooking process.

If you don't stir the pasta during cooking, it will stick together.
