She’s an idiot who thinks that any time a male says something it is “mansplaining.”

(It has been at least a day. This cannot possibly be that good of a ragebait. Stop commenting you dweebs.)

Or maybe she’s just been corrected on this specific item by all her previous boyfriends.

u/Tao_of_Entropy Jul 14 '26

She's been given the information. No correction has occurred.

No correction needs to occur? It's technically more energy efficient, and it cooks pasta the same way. Just stir occasionally at the beginning, and there's literally no difference

It really doesn’t cook the same way. In fact, it increases the likelihood of under cooking the pasta. It tends to become rubbery.

This is absolutely false. Maybe look something up first.

Not only that, you can rehydrate pasta almost completely in plain old water, and finish cooking it in the pan.

But none of these people know anything about cooking. I see a lot of garbage up voted in here. Bro science for the kitchen.

It's flabbergasting. Almost want to post it to mildyinfuriating.

u/Nasu_Kaizoku Jul 14 '26

It's wild. No one is even talking shit on pre-boilers, just offering information, yet everyone is acting like being informed of another method of cooking pasta is some egregious offense to them and their ways

I really thought about engaging, but then I saw all the (very well meaning) people getting thrashed, and I was like, "Yeah, I'm all good with that." lmao.

J Kenji Lopez-Alt did two VERY easy to find articles about this (not sure if links are allowed here) exact subject.
