I've done it before because it was all stuck together like concrete

I would do this, if I ever cooked spaghetti. I hate long noodles and will cut them up every time.

Who keeps leftover spaghetti like this in the first place? Where the sauce isn't already mixed with the pasta? This is the kind of madness using jarred sauce does to a person.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

This is the way, just don't use all of the sauce, or it'll all absorb into the pasta, leaving you with a dry, yet mushy spaghetti when you reheat it the next day. The secret is to mix in about 2 or 3 ladlefulls of sauce with the pasta and then store the rest in a separate container.

slice and dry like ramen

Someday all food will be in cubes. Some day.

What’s wrong babe you’ve hardly touched your spaghettiloaf.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 days ago

They clearly should have used an ice cream scoop.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

If Lovecraft was a chef.

Who makes PLAIN spaghetti??? Is this person my 4 year old?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I wouldn't hesitate to cut me a slice and microwave it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

Batter and breadcrumb your slice of congealed noodles, and pan fry it.

(If you want to make yet another food culture twitch, you can call this a kugel.)

Tcouple slices in the toaster to get nice and crispy, fill with Cheetos and ketchup, bone apple teeth

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Hell no! Not about the toaster but I'm just eating it unflavored. Its one of my childhood favorites. If I added anything to it it would be a little salsa.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

square spaghetti, just the way the Drifter likes it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

You been sliced!

I know enough people who break their spaghetti before cooking them or who cut them before serving them.

I die a little inside every time.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I die a little inside every time.

Why is that?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It goes against my culinary convictions. 😄

It is meant to be enjoyed in its full, long form - in my book. Breaking spaghetti changes the texture and how it twirls around a fork, thus changing the classic dining experience.

Plus, long spaghetti is (are?) perfect for catching the sauce evenly.

None of this will keep anyone from breaking them, but it keeps my world safe and sound. 😁

Nah, i prefer to cut and mix them instead of that thwirling and slurping. They could make Spaghetti Couscous-sized for all i care. But you do you.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

How else are you to fit them into small pots?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

You need to watch the pot but laying them over the pot of boiling water until they're soft enough to bend in the middle works fine.

I die a little inside every time I hear a noodle slurped

I'm just gonna go ahead and say yes and not click the video lol. I can be incredibly sensitive to certain noises. Pretty sure I have misophonia

[–] [email protected] 27 points 3 days ago (2 children)

i would do that. i may have already done that

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Me too. What are you supposed to do? Extra work?

I furl each strand carefully? Soak in hot water and have slimey spaghetti? Lick the entire bundle slowly till it warms up and unfurls? Rest on bosom until it unfurls?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Package up a serving of spaghetti with a serving of sauce so you can throw it in the microwave and eat?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Unpossible! if you don't want to heat up or eat it all at once, Surely sauce is going to splash on your tuxedo...

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

Believe it or not, straight to jail.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

You need a deli slicer for that pasta loaf.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 days ago

What's wrong babe? You haven't touched your spaghettiloaf.
