Easy Pasta With Mushrooms




Easy Pasta With Mushrooms 

Pastas are made in many shapes, different taste and color. What’s common is that almost everyone loves pasta, and it’s easy and quick to make. The usual color of pasta is green, and it comes from spinach. Next to it there’s red pasta, which comes from tomato puree. The most common question regarding preparation is- how long should we cook pasta?
The answer is simple; pasta should be cooked in very salty water. For every 400g of pasta should be 4 liters of water, and 4 tablespoons of salt. To test how well is cooked, try a piece of pasta, if it’s soft and stringy, then it’s well cooked. If later you would bake pasta, like lasagnas in the oven, than don’t cook it thoroughly.
