If your pasta never tastes quite as good as it should, the problem may not be your sauce—it may be how you’re cooking the pasta itself. In this video, I’ll show you the simple techniques that can make a big difference before the pasta ever reaches your plate.
We’ll talk about whether you should add oil to pasta water, how much salt you really need, why “salty as the sea” isn’t necessarily a good rule, and how to tell when pasta is properly cooked. I’ll also show you why that starchy pasta water is worth saving and how understanding a few small details can completely change your finished dish.
These aren’t complicated chef tricks. They’re simple fundamentals that help you make better-tasting pasta at home every time.
I created my digital handbook to help you understand food, build flavor, and cook with confidence. It’s not just recipes—it’s the little things that make a big difference.
