Divvy said: Yeah, it's mid-autumn festival so we had people over so I had to cook for more than the usual people. I guess I lost track of the noodles while cooking. Click to expand...

Askani said: As long as it's not cold it's fine IMO. Hot Water is still enough to cool it down and help to stop the cooking but doesn't cool it too much and there's still some starch left. That being said, it's also why I use the Barilla Spaghetti Rigati noodle. Ridges! Sauce holders! Click to expand...

Yeah this will teach you just cook noodles/pasta long before you ever need them, then when you are hungry, you have extra options.Rice noodles?Also as above, always rinse them down. My dad is a criminal and never does that and I always give him shit for that.I usually edge closer to ice cold water. Any reason not to, unless you plan on eating them soon after? (I still do this and hate myself sometimes though)
