Spaghetti with meat - tips and tricks
• To prevent pasta from sticking together, they are usually lubricated. But melting butter is a waste of time and marania dishes. You can simply add a spoonful of vegetable oil to the pan and stir.
• The tomato skin is poorly cooked and remains hard in the dish, so it’s best to remove it. To do this, the tomatoes need to scald with boiling water, then hold in cold water.
• To shorten the frying time of the meat, and it does not become dry, the pieces can be slightly tipped off with a hammer. Especially if it's beef. First, the piece is cut into layers of 1 or 2 centimeters, beat off, and only then cut into strips or cubes.
• Not sure which spices to add to spaghetti? Put Italian seasonings, Provencal herbs and definitely can not go wrong!
• One of the most common mistakes that housewives make is washing pasta with cold water. If you need to rinse spaghetti, then only boiling water. And wise housewives also pour a colander with hot water before filling pasta.
• Did you buy unsuccessful soft wheat spaghetti, they boil soft and do not keep their shape? They do not need to throw away! Just do not cook until tender, only half. And then fry in a pan with butter, meat, vegetables or eggs.
