Cooking pasta is not a difficult task, but it still requires some patience and time.

For example, pasta made from durum wheat takes about 8-12 minutes to cook.

Yulia Arkhipova, an expert in the field of cooking for the online publication Belnovosti, a cook and fourth-class baker, tells us how to significantly speed up the process of cooking pasta.

How to Cook Pasta in a Minute

To cook pasta in literally a minute, you need to soak it in cold water first.

The water should completely cover the pasta. Soak for half an hour to an hour, maybe longer.

Next, transfer the pasta into boiling salted water and cook for one minute.

To prevent pasta from sticking together, it must be cooked in a large amount of constantly boiling water.
