Frequently asked questions

  • What are the easiest pasta recipes?

    Garlic butter pasta, aglio e olio, and tomato basil pasta are among the easiest. They need few ingredients and minimal prep.

  • How much pasta per person?

    A good rule of thumb is about 2 oz (56 g) dry pasta per person for a side and 3–4 oz for a main dish.

  • Can I make pasta ahead?

    You can prep sauces ahead and cook pasta fresh. If storing cooked pasta, toss with a little oil to prevent sticking.
