When I’m not taking out high-interest personal loans to finance my crippling NYC restaurant addiction (read: most of the time) I’m a pretty no-frills home cook. I like simple, one-pot meals that leave me with minimal dishes and maximal flavor. One easy weeknight meal I find myself constantly turning toward is goosed-up instant ramen.

Dry pasta is sold by weight, but that measurement doesn’t tell you how much cooked pasta you’ll actually end up with. Here’s a handy guide to estimating how much dry pasta you’ll need to make one serving of cooked pasta. All of these estimates are based on a 2-ounce serving of dry pasta. For long pasta shapes, the measurement is based on the circumference of the dry pasta bundle; short shapes can be measured in a measuring cup.

The Pasta Underdog: Giving Whole Wheat Pasta Another Chance

When whole wheat and whole grain pastas first hit store shelves a few years back, they were touted as being healthier! and more wholesome! and just like regular pasta! The first two things may have been true, but the last one, not so much. Most whole grain pastas were gummy, bitter-tasting, and altogether unpleasant to eat. But these pastas have come a long way, and I’m rooting for the underdog.More than anything else, I appreciate diversity in my pantry.
