Ok to make Rigatoni Pasta Dish 2 days in advance?
Comments (7)Emily, My reasoning is that the pasta will absorb water from the sauce and get flabby. In your first post you suggested ways to possibly prevent that. However, the outcome of doing that is somewhat uncontrolled and uncertain IMO. I would rather do it the other way and be more certain about it. Freezing is a different story. It can be frozen before the pasta absorbs water. Jim...See Moresecret to make ahead pasta casserole?
Comments (3)Make sure the pasta is very al denté when you add it to the other ingredients, that way the liquid it will absorb while sitting won't harm it much. You also might need to add a bit more liquid the next day before baking....See Moreelizpiz you asked:) KAW....summer pasta and baguette
Comments (19)WOW you guys are so great. It is good to be back. I sure do wish we could make it to NYC, Martha. We will be there the 1st week of December to celebrate my 60th birthday. Can't get there sooner as we are going to Seattle and then Vashon Island and then San Diego CA for 4 weeks. We will be travelled out by then I am thinkin. hellonasty: THANK YOU ! I will link to it below. It is the French Bread from a forum I frequent, The Fresh Loaf. I get a lot of ideas there. This particular bread takes 3 days but is worth it as it is quite easy to do. I sure hope you will post lots of things from your new kitchen ...we love pics of Kitchens in Action ! prill : it sure was. I still can't believe I did it. Have no other plans to do it again as I don't want to be away from DH that long ever again. He is my rock . kitchen: I use a Ciabatta from The Fresh Loaf. Here is the link for that...don't know how to post it "right" but you can cut and paste. It is a great bread and makes wonderful pizza crust too !! http://www.thefreshloaf.com/node/2984/jasons-quick-coccodrillo-ciabatta-bread Follow exactly, I don't do the one with the semolina as it didn't turn out right but the other is always perfect. Hey Holly ! I am sure glad to be home at least for a few weeks. I plan on lots of baking over the winter when it gets cooler here. Hey Elyse ! I loved the pic of you and your fridge LOL. You are so going to have a great kitchen when it is done. I can hardly wait to see all the great things you will be making. You will have to post all of them for us to oooh and ahhh. You can add grilled chicken to the pasta dish or shrimp etc. It would be wonderful. DH said the same thing....I need MEAT ! haha. ...c Here is a link that might be useful: Gosselin cold retarded French loaf...See MoreKAW - my 13 year old makes homemade pasta
Comments (14)True, Debrak! Even within the cult of drawers there are doctrinal differences. I will encourage my children to be flexible and open-minded since we are in the "bullet-proof" counters denomination but accepting of "patina"-ists. And maybe, with time, and beautiful, well nurtured grandchildren involved, I could be respectful of an alternative flooring lifestyle....See Moreannie1992
