The popular "water-pickled pasta " is made by soaking dried noodles such as spaghetti in water and then boiling them to "shorten the boiling time and give the texture like raw noodles." I'm sure there are people who haven't done it, but have heard of it. However, it takes about 2 hours to soak in water, so it is not a method that can be done when you want to prepare rice immediately.


Therefore, we recommend the style of " soaking in water and then freezing it ." By stocking it in the freezer, you can boil it quickly even on weekday nights and enjoy the chewy al dente. I will introduce the procedure.

Freezing method of pickled pasta

material

・ Spaghetti (using products that are boiled for 5 minutes)
・ Water / oil (olive oil, salad oil, etc.)
· salt

procedure

1. 1. Soak the spaghetti in plenty of water for about 2 hours. Folding spaghetti in half is easy because you don't need to prepare a large container.



2. Drain the softened spaghetti and sprinkle with a small amount of olive oil.



3. 3. Place in a storage container or storage bag and place in the freezer. When putting it in a storage container, it is better to put the plastic wrap on the surface.



Four. When boiling, add salt (equivalent to 1% of the amount of hot water) and put it in boiling water while it is frozen. Boil time is about 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds. Since it is frozen, the temperature tends to drop, so it is important to keep the water in a well-boiled state.




You may be wondering, "Is it frozen in less than two minutes?", But this is unexpectedly al dente. The appropriate boiling time depends on the type of spaghetti and texture preference, so it is safe to scoop up one or two bottles one minute after you start boiling and check the condition of the fire.


"Water-pickled pasta" that feels like it can be made into a special dish with a little effort before boiling. Why don't you soak it slowly on holidays, store it in a freezer, and boil it quickly when you think of it? If you want to cook immediately without freezing, soak in water and boil in boiling water for about 1 minute.
