Perfect Pasta With No Watching and No Sweating

perfect recipe !! i tried macronis too just takes 10 min n even noodles too in just 10 min thank u !!

This is genius! Much more easier and my pasta came out wonderful.

I thried this with angel hair whole wheat pasta for 10 minutes and it was perfect al dente. Can't wait to try it with other types of pasta.

This is soooo awesome! It's GREAT when you only have four burners and everybody wants something else. My husband is very picky about his pasta and this cooks it to a perfect al dente. No more complaining! YAY

I have cooked my boiled eggs like this for years and never thought to try it with pasta. Thanks for posting Margaret3, can't wait to try it!

I have tried this now with different kinds of pasta, even filled pasta- still works great! The only way I cook pasta now :)

I finally remembered your recipe.Tried it with Fettuccini for 3 and it came out PERFECT. Thanks for showing me a new way to cook pasta. Sge/Rita

This worked well! I will def use this during the summer months when I don't want the heat from the stove. Could have really used this in our old house -- I couldn't cooking anything in the oven or stovetop there during the summer months :) Thanks!

This is how I always do my pasta. It makes it perfect! Thanks!

Wonderful idea! I did this for Macaroni and Cheese for the Crock Pot. While I was waiting for the mac to be done I mixed up the cheese and sauce and had it in the pt in less than 15 minutes.

Thank you! Thank you! :)

Worked like a charm with my Linguini pasta last night. Thank you so much for posting. I did have a hard time with this as my DH was SURE it would not work and kept opening the lid to check it - telling me "we've GOT to cook it more" Was he surprised when it came out perfect even with all his interuptions. Can't wait to do this again WITHOUT his help.

Absolutely GENIOUS! I tried this tonight with Barilla Thick Spaghetti. I left in in a couple minutes longer, since it was thick style. Just PERFECT! I will never have a mushy forgotten pot of pasta again. Thank you Thank you Thank you.

What a smart idea. ;) I can't believe I'd never thought of this. LOL Awesome. Thanks Margaret3!

I can't tell you how perfect my pasta is right now!!! I cooked 3 pounds of ziti rigati and it came out perfect in 15 minutes. This not only saves from overcooking but it saves money on electric or gas because you turn off the stovetop!! I am greatful you posted this and so many reviews helped bring it to my attention so here's one more!!

Wow, what a great recipe! My kitchen gets so hot and we really do enjoy our pasta so this method for us is awesome. Thank you for posting.

Go figure...this works great! I remembered reading this recipe earlier and decided to try it one night when I was running all over doing too many things at once. The pasta was done perfectly and I was able to finish other chores at the same time. Thanks a bunch!

I decided to try this when entertaining family, but figured if it didn't work I could always cook up some more pasta. I used whole wheat thin spaghetti and went for it. I set the timer for the time recommended on the box and it worked perfect. It was a dream not to have water running down the walls and not having to worry about it over boiling, etc. Same theory as the "seen on tv" pasta cooking containers - no need to buy those!

Great tip! I have tried this with thin spaghetti and elbow macaroni and it works. I usually boil my pasta for 5-10 min. then add the lid and remove from heat. I let it sit for about 5-10 more min. and it turns out perfect every time. I do not like al dente cooked pasta so I usually end up over boiling it trying to get it done all the way. Not anymore, Thank you!!
