Cooking instructions
To cook 100 grams of pasta you need on average 1 liter of water and 7 grams of salt, i.e. a teaspoon of fine salt, plenty if large. 1. Bring 3-4 quarts of water to a rolling boil. 2. Add salt. 3. Add Pasta and cook following the instructions on the pack (Stir occasionally). 4. Drain gently and serve. Passive cooking, also known as flame-out cooking, is a technique that has existed since the mid-19th century. It is an alternative method for cooking pasta that allows you to save energy and reduce CO₂e emissions by up to 80%*. To adopt it, simply turn off the stove after 2 minutes of active cooking, cover the pot with a lid and wait for the right cooking time. Obviously, as with all cooking methods, following the correct times is essential.
Reduce Environmental Impact During Cooking
- Use only as much water as needed
On average 1 liter per 100 grams of pasta. This way you reduce your impact on water resources. - Put the lid on the pot
The water will boil in less time. - Add the salt when the water is boiling.
Salt slows down the boiling by wasting gas. - Turn off the heat halfway through cooking
Putting the lid on, the pasta continues to cook even when the heat is off. - Reuse the pasta cooking water for washing dishes
Avoiding having to heat another one.
