I mean, the fresh stuff is certainly better. Also, Barilla isn’t that awesome. I don’t know what you have available, but I live in Italy and I never buy Barilla. (Although I’d like to thank them for being a large contributor to my adopted city’s finances.)
But yeah, time things so that the sauce is ready when the pasta becomes ready. The sauce won’t suffer for sitting for a few minutes.

Don’t leave your pasta hanging.

Isn’t GB news for people who think The Daily Mail is too reality based?
- Comment on Settle a debate can potato's and noodles go together and taste great with sauce and other things? (I say it can) However my mother says two starches should never be cooked because it's too much. 2 weeks ago:
Trofie* al pesto is most properly made with string beans and potatoes and is delicious if the pesto is good and fresh.
*a pasta shape

I was fully prepared to cry in my acquired Roman accent but… that actually sounds great. The only thing I have to cry about is that they were out of carbonara at this place I’m sat in Pescara.

Poking light fun at everyone, really. Including the Italian above and myself for living here and having taken on some of that.
And yes, I grew up eating spaghetti with minced beef and ketchup.

We hate your freedom to put ketchup on pasta.

That and also he is German.

Your nick notwithstanding, never trust the fart.

I’d bet a Euro, just for the hell of it. But obviously I’d lose that Euro.
- Comment on Zen 3 months ago:
As someone who moved downhill from there, yes, I’d agree. But things weren’t always like this, and when Americans say “Italian”, they really mean “someone whose great grand parents may have been Italian. At least some of them.”
- Comment on Zen 3 months ago:
Which would make sense if those Italians were from the Aosta Valley, since food and other culture doesn’t stop hard at the border. But I’m betting they’re not.

Wait, Tom Tom is German? So European.

General lawlessness.

My people would rather have starved than eat crustaceans. Lobsters were being fed to prisoners in the US until recently. People are weird.
(It was a valiant attempt)

-20°F is -29°C

That isn’t Mercator, then the longitude lines would be parallel and not converge at the pole like that. Greenland really is massive, even without the Mercator distortion.
- Comment on Hurry pls it's urgent 6 months ago:
A lot of people still go by the NATO vs Warsaw Pact division that we grew up with. I still have to envision Czechia as the western part of Czechoslovakia.

To repurpose The Fermi Paradox, if AI allows anyone to easily make a useful product, then where are they all?
Is that The AI Fermi Paradox?
- Comment on Typical monopoly people 7 months ago:
One major issue is that it’ll expose all regional differences in pronunciation in the spelling and now we’ll disagree about the spelling instead.
- Comment on Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life 7 months ago:
The cheese slicer is a great Norwegian invention and much used in all the Nordics. And The Netherlands. And Germany?
I think it mostly boils down to “what is cheese” to you. If you think you can even have an argument about whether you should cut “cheese” with a cheese slicer, then you come from a place where they make sense.
In my fridge I’ve got parmigiano, gorgonzola dolce and I just finished a rare piece of emmenthal. A slicer would have been useful only with the last one of those.
But my sandwiches! I hear all my fellow northerners cry. They’re great with brie or toma. No slicer needed.

Icelandic here. Still no summer.
Just kidding, it was Tuesday last week.

Unflavoured, unsweetened, full fat yoghurt is the only yoghurt. You’re thinking of sweet, vanilla low-fat yoghurt.
