Overnight pasta or pasta left out, soaking in pasta sauce is gross. Worse is pasta from the fridge. Only fresh pasta is good. Or is it?
Here's how to "fix" pasta that's either been sitting in your fridge or been out too long
This is for pasta without meat. For pasta with meat you'll have to be careful to heat to safe internal temperatures for the meaty bits.
Time 6-8 Minutes
Ingredients
- Sesame Oil
- 1x Egg
- "Ruined" Pasta
Steps
- Bring skillet to medium-low heat and put sesame oil in
- Add the terrible pasta. Make sure it is just terrible and not rotting / moldy / expired. I wouldn't do this to pasta that wasn't put in the fridge or was left out for too long
- Brown the pasta for a minute so one side is crispy
- Break the egg in and toss the pasta with your spatula
- Continue tossing the pasta with spatula until the egg is cooked
You now have semi-edible pasta
