Pasta Recipes FAQs
Can you freeze cooked pasta?
Yes you can! In fact, it’s a great way to save on your food waste. Make sure to cool the pasta first and store in an air-tight container or freezer bag. To reheat, transfer your pasta into the fridge to thaw, then add it to boiling water and cook as normal to reheat.
How many grams of pasta per person?
The quantity of pasta required per person depends on the type of pasta you use. However as a standard measurement, we recommend around 100g of the likes of penne, linguine or cavatappi per person. Did you know that all HelloFresh recipes come with pre-portioned ingredients, including pastas, so that you’ll always have the exact portion you need, and very little to zero food waste!
How do I thicken pasta sauce?
You can thicken pasta sauce by adding some of your pasta water to your sauce! You can also try simmering it longer to reduce the liquid, and add a thickening agent like a cornstarch slurry, a small amount of flour, or grated cheese. Adding pureed vegetables, mashed beans, or cream can also give the sauce more body.
How do I boil pasta?
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, add pasta, and cook until al dente (usually 8–12 minutes at 212°F (100°C), depending on the type).
Does pasta expire?
Yes, dry pasta lasts up to 2 years; fresh pasta should be used within a few days or frozen.
Did pasta come first or noodles?
Noodles came first, originating in China around 4,000 years ago, while pasta developed in Italy later.
What is the key ingredient in pasta?
The key ingredients are typically durum wheat semolina and water.
What pasta recipes can I add to my HelloFresh box?
