Grandma's Secret Trick
Grandma's Secret Trick
Over the years Grandma cooked countless pots of pasta for salads, spaghetti and meatballs, and casseroles. A trick she discovered was to slightly undercook the pasta when it was going to be baked in a casserole. That way the pasta didn't become mushy during the additional cooking time in the oven.
