Pasta and Rice Cooking Guidelines

1.Use hot tap water. It will boil faster than cold.

2.The amount of oil in the water, is important when cooking pasta and rice, as it helps to keep the water from boiling over.

3.Cook pasta and rice in a covered dish, for faster cooking. Glass lids or heavy-duty plastic wrap are the best coverings to use since they are the most water-vapor-proof.

4.Use a large enough dish so water completely covers pasta and rice.

5.Pasta can be reheated quickly in the microwave oven. Pasta should be reheated on Full power in a covered casserole. For a large quantity, add 1 to 2 tablespoons liquid before reheating. Stir once or twice during reheating.
