How To Store Pasta

Fresh pasta should be stored in the refrigerator or freezer.  Filled pastas should really be stored in the freezer as the humidity from being stored in an air tight container will cause the pieces to stick together when stored in the fridge.  Fresh pasta stored in the fridge will last a week and up to 3 months in the freezer.

Dried pasta just needs a cool, dry, and dark place - a shelf or cupboard in your kitchen. 

How To Cook Pasta
All of our pasta comes with specific cooking instructions based on it's shape and thickness. However, people have very different opinions on how pasta 'should' be cooked. Some people like their pasta cooked more than others. That is fine - always test your pasta a little early to see if that is how you want it. Remember - you can always cook it more, but you can never cook it less.

How to Sauce Pasta
While the pasta is cooking, bring your sauce up to a boil in another pot or pan. When your pasta is done, strain it and add it to the sauce along with a couple tablespoons of the pasta cooking water. Bring to a boil and finish cooking together, while gently stirring. After about a minute or so it should be ready.
