I used very small pasta. so it was cooked fine. it tasted great, cold the nxt day. Kids didn't enjoy the sauce. I got the water quantity from the packet of pasta having first weighed the pasta.

I used 4 cups of water with 16 oz. of penne that I did not pre-cook and simmered it for 20 minutes, and it was perfect.

How much water??

 

Commented by: nkkilala

Is there a certain amount of water you should add in order to make sure the pasta is cooked? In the directions it says water but it doesn't list how much in the ingrediants

Pasta needs to be precooked before preparing this recipe, otherwise pasta is under done.
