Paula is getting ready for the weekend and St. Patrick's Day so we get ever more recipes. She writes for this one:
This side dish goes great with chicken or fish. Of course according to a certain teen, it’s great right out of the fridge, cold the next day.

(Paula writes 1 Pound Fresh Linguine Pasta - cooked. Bear that in mind. This is to make the sauce. She assumes we know how to make the pasta!) This is a one for difficulty even if you do have to cook the Pasta!

As to Pasta itself. This could probably be one of the most confusing things to the "new" cook. Pasta is used as a "descriptor" and a "name" of many really different dishes. There are many different types of "pasta", many shapes, many tastes (spinach etc.). We are going to cover all this in a separate post devoted to Pasta.

Comments

I apologize, I should have stated according to directions. Of course boxed pasta will cook longer than fresh. Fresh Linguine takes approx 1 minute in boiling water, whereas boxed pasta will take approx 9 - 12 minutes.
