>NOOOO you can't just break the pasta!>it needs to stay long so it cooks unevenly and I play around with the food later like a kid!Why are italians like this?

>>21971662Ratio
I have gone off spaghetti as my default pasta. Just use penne or if you really need strands, tagliatelle. I do think that in Italy they have taller pots but with a smaller diameter. I have to use one of my larger ones.And the biggest trick is that after a few seconds they are bendy enough to be pushed down.
The only people who break spaghetti are actually people who are too stupid to figure out how to cook it properly. I think spaghetti is the worst form of pasta. The only strand I fuck with is fettuccine. Otherwise it’s Penne or spirals.
>>21972308>And the biggest trick is that after a few seconds they are bendy enough to be pushed down.it's not a trick lmao. it's just common sense.
>>21972389You might say, you’re spiralling out of pennetrol.
>>21972389Why do you fuck with it? Why not use it for eating?
>>21972407Your mom is for eating.
>>21972478No she's cremated. Don't even have her ashes. Scattered them. Sorry lad.
>>21971650You don’t have a passport, do you?
>>21971650there are normal italian people but they are the ones who saw through the matrix so to speak. the normie italians are trapped in this linguistic circus
>>21972483Saar?
>>21971650That carb overload?Not a real man alert!
>>21971686He doesn't know about the al dente way of life.
1) we break spaghetti and other pasta all the time; it's just "Italian" Americans who shid and fard all over themselves in irrational fury over it because they've nothing else2) spaghetti softens almost immediately with contact with boiling water to the point that you can push the entire strands in within a second or two3) "oh noes! you overcooked one end of the spaghetti by two seconds! The dish is ruined!" is not anything anyone had ever said because boiling doesn't work that way4) if it tingles your 'tism that much, just use a large frying pan or very, very tall pot; the pan uses less water and since you're obviously alone in life and always will be, that's what you should use5) only retards like you and >>21972389, who is likely a greasy wop dego from New Jersey named Vinnie, Mikey or Joey, are too stupid to understand that breaking spaghetti isn't about cooking it properly/evenly>>21972544wut
>>21972693You don't know what you're talking about, do you?
>>21972696>arguing with an actual Italian about Italian foodlol>>21972693It's just a meme that you guys get pissed at pasta breaking.
>>21972693>breaking spaghetti isn't about cooking it properly/evenlywhat's it about then?
>>21971662Fpbp OP got annihilated
>>21972402I don't think that's immediately obvious if you haven't tried it before.
I break spaghetti so I don't have to cut it before eating with a fork later.
>>21972742To make it spoonable for minestre and soups. Done throughout Italy, it's especially common in the South and since all greasy wop degos are descended of dirt-eating southerners, it's surprising to me that they'd have such a stick up their collective ass about breaking pasta.>>21972696>t. retard
>>21972755huh that's why we use vermicelli in our soups because the little balls they come in are much easier to crush in your fistghetti are annoying to break
>>21972724I'm not arguing>>21972755>xyz cooklet tastelet
>>21971650Long noodles (of any type) are better
