Just count the noodles.
Or lay them all out long ways and measure
Or lay them all out short ways and measure
Just look at how much you have when it’s uncooked and then remember what that much looks like after it’s been cooked? Should start to get an idea after a few hundred pots of pasta. 🙃👌
You make pasta when you want.
I make pasta out of soups…
We are not the same, and I’m not allowed to cook soups anymore.
I fail to see this as a problem. More pasta is always welcome.
You guys are the pros!
I just jumped in intended to commiserate but y’all are next level. I was going to say I’m used to making two boxes for my teens and keep doing so by mistake even when it’s just me. I have no idea what weight that may be
“it’s Dean Martin’s recipe, I always make too much”
How much dry pasta per person by weight?
Approximately .69 grams per kilogram should do it.
That’s … actually pretty accurate
0.69 x 75 ≈ 52
I eat at least twice that amount
Yes, overserving pasta is pretty common
you’re saying I’m eating too much? for context this is when I’m only adding sauce and nothing else because a courgette alone is already too large to eat by myself
Look at this guy, he can’t handle a whole courgette
mayve I should try it once
I do 150g with a light sauce, like aglio e olio or chili oil. Maybe 75g if it’s going with a bunch of veg and meat.
A quarter or a third of a 500g pack depending on how hungry you are, 125g or 166g. In an Italian menu no more than 100g as a “primo”, where the pasta dish is one of two main dishes and you are supposed to eat bread as a filler.
