Ingredients
Rinse the gluten-free pasta under cold water.
Place the pasta in the microwave-safe Extra Large Dish (from Anyday).
Add 4 cups water to the dish, ensure the noodles are covered by the water (add more if needed) and add salt.
Microwave uncovered to prevent spillover. Cook at full power according to the wattage of your microwave (1000w) for 15-16 minutes. Try a noodle and add more time if needed.
Drain any extra water. Noodles are ready to add toppings and/or sauce, then serve.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS & TIPS
Creamy Garlic Parmesan: Add sour cream, garlic powder, and parmesan cheese to the cooked pasta for a quick flavor upgrade!
Pesto Chicken: Toss the cooked pasta with pesto sauce and shredded rotisserie chicken for a simple yet flavorful meal.
Tomato Basil Mozzarella: Mix cooked pasta with fresh diced tomatoes, torn basil leaves, and chunks of fresh mozzarella cheese, then drizzle with olive oil and balsamic glaze.
Sausage and Broccoli: Add sliced apple sausage and broccoli 2-3 minutes before the pasta is done, then toss well for a hearty and savory dish.
RECIPE NOTES
Gluten-free pasta should be rinsed thoroughly until the water runs clear to remove excess starch and avoid a gummy, undesirable texture.
Most pasta indicates the cook time on the package. If in doubt, use those instructions as a cook time guide.
Is your water spilling over? Make sure to always use a Deep dish when making pasta. Depending on the amount, size up from Large or Extra Large.
Want to experiment with a different pasta shape? Make sure that water is completely covering the before microwaving.
Microwave ovens vary, even with the same wattages. Adjust cooking times as needed (additional pasta volumes for this type of pasta and spaghetti volumes available at the link, along with the ability to adjust microwave wattage to automatically calculate a recommended cooking time).
