Timing pasta is not a science. It’s a dance. You, the water, the heat, the noodle—all twirling together.
Forget the box. Forget the clock. Use your senses. Listen to the water bubbling. Watch the steam rising. Smell the starch.
And when you bite that first perfect noodle? You’ll know. It’s just you, the pasta, and the universe. And maybe some Parmesan. Go boil something.
