When I was a kid I witnessed my mom throwing food and I remember thinking, “I can’t believe she’s doing that, I’m not allowed to!”
Imagine my surprise as an 8 year old to learn that she was actually testing to see if the spaghetti was done.
Here’s what you need to do, just Pull a noodle out of a pot of simmering water, let the water drip from it for a few seconds, and then chuck it against the nearest kitchen wall.
If it adheres to the wall, it’s al dente! (No Sauce Please, lol)
