Pasta

Due to the heat of summer nights, pasta dishes make an excellent dinnertime selection. But it is essential to know which variety to select, how to cook it properly and enjoy its flavours fully.

Certain sauces pair perfectly with certain kinds of noodles – this was not deliberated upon, it simply evolved over generations. For instance, spaghetti or linguine pairs well with light sauce that coats each strand rather than chunkier varieties that do not cover as many threads.

Keep this in mind when adding pasta to the pot: resist the urge to throw in noodles before the water has fully reached a rolling boil, as that will result in soggy noodles. Instead, be patient and allow your noodles to slowly rehydrate in hot water; this will ensure even cooking. Once your noodles are finished cooking evenly, drain and immediately toss with your chosen sauce so that it can absorb its flavors while emphasizing their texture.

Main Dishes

Main courses are the cornerstones of every meal, often consisting of meat or fish (or vegetarian options like curry or dal). These dishes can serve as either the starter course, main dish, or both! A main dish often takes the place of an appetizer course before being followed up with salad, soup or dessert courses.

An exceptional main course can be created quickly with only basic ingredients and techniques, and all cooks can master it! The flavors will be bold yet complex, while fresh herbs, spices or sauces can add depth and variety.
