Tips and Tricks
Perfectly Cooked Pasta
To make sure your pasta is perfectly cooked, boil it in a large pot with plenty of water and add a generous amount of salt. This enhances the flavor of the pasta itself.
Herb Preparation
Chop your herbs just before cooking to keep them fresh and flavorful. Store any extra herbs in the fridge wrapped in a damp paper towel inside a plastic bag.
Garlic Flavor
For a more intense garlic flavor, you can mince the garlic and cook it with the herbs instead of discarding it. Alternatively, infuse the butter with garlic by cooking it on low heat for a longer period.
Melting Butter
To avoid burning the butter, melt it on low heat. Once melted, you can increase the heat slightly before adding the herbs.
Tossing the Pasta
When adding the herb butter to the pasta, make sure to toss it well to evenly coat every strand. Using tongs can help with this process.
Extra Flavor
For added flavor, you can sprinkle a bit of grated Parmesan cheese on top before serving. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice can also brighten up the dish.
Serving
Serve the pasta immediately to enjoy it at its best. If you need to keep it warm, cover it with aluminum foil until ready to serve.
