I'm making dinner tonight (pasta) and I ran into a little trouble guys......
>>22070146stop watching it, idiot
>>22070146You're supposed to boil the water before putting it in the pot anon
>>22070146nigga that's a pot of frying oil
>>22070182Nah man, that's a layer of olive oil with salt islands. I was meal prepping earlier in the day by putting the water in the pot, along with oil and salt.
>>22070426Putting oil in the pot does nothing retard. It all sits at the top of the water
>>22070146depends on your stove. can even differ between different burners on the same stove. you just gotta get a feel for it.
>>22070441Yeah, but how else am I supposed to get salt islands?
I don't know how I did it, but I pulled it off fellas! I call this dish: "Two Men Together", named after the two layers of marinara and vodka sauce in the baked dish. I take a layer of rigatoni, mixed with vodka sauce on the bottom, a layer of mozarella cheese on top of that, a sprinklin' of little caesars zap pack seasoning, a layer of 2 day old beef spaghets sauce, ANOTHER layer of mozarella cheese, ANOTHER sprinklin' of little caesars zap pack seasoning and some fresh ground pepper after it comes outta the oven. I gotta say, in Italy, they say nothing goes to waste, and in this case, chef boyardee was that what happened! Let's just say, there wasn't a morsel left after this hit the table!A real eye-talian feast! WALA!
>>22070455why do you want salt islands? the salt should be dissolved in the water
>>22070146Olive oil inThat keeps the pasta from sticking
>>22070472No it doesn't
>>22070469Salt islands fuck, bro.
>>22070182>riffraff speakwhy?
Test it with an ice cube
>>22070467yummy
>>22070153fippy bippy
>>22070146A rolling boil gathers no heat
>>22070730adds a humorous layer to the reply. I could've said something like "whippersnapper" or "young thingummywut" but the effect isn't the same. hope this helps!
>>22070467What does it look like as a portion on a plate? I'm more interested in that
>>22071614Well, I didn't take any pics plated, tbqh. But imagine a vodka saucey rigatoni bottom topped with cheese holding it mostly together, then a layer of thick and hearty marinara base spaghetti sauce with beef, red bell peppers diced and sautéed, and onion diced and sautéed, all part of the sauce, then another layer of cheese melted on top, cooked under the burner after baking with a foil cover for 50 minutes.You cut out a slice like lasagna, which is what it looked like, except for the loose bottom of rigatoni, which you have to scoop out the rest and surround your cohesive meat cheese sauce rigatoni square. It was very delicious. I think the salt islands and the oil in the water really made the whole dish come together.
