Stop Boiling Pasta in WATER, You'll Thank YOU! Seriously there are so many other ways to enjoy pasta! The best part besides being incredibly tasty is this comes together so much quicker, uses less pots and pans and a heck of a lot less wasted energy trying to get a pot up to a boil!
You can use any pasta you want, any liquid you want as a base and any veg! I know this is taking it back to the basics but sometimes a reminder is nice!
Check out just about any risotto recipe and swap out the rice for a macaroni, spaghetti or whatever pasta shape you want.. I love this hack!

Hey friend. I think you meant to say "sage" at the end, but said "rosemary" instead. This video and method/recipe is a real banger. I hope you're having a great Friday!
Can we do this but with plant based chickn strips made of tvp maybe.. instead of mushrooms? Pls I cant get tvp right😂
Havent stopped by on this channel for a while. Congrats on the weight loss. Im sure it came along with some major health changes. Did you get any new abilities unlocked or something? When I lost weight everything feels lighter and i dont feel so tired all the time
Vegan butter? agg
@@maxxpirk margarine. Flax egg, apple sauce, banana, aquafaba, etc …
Thank you for the mushroom message. It drives me crazy that people would eat dirty mushrooms because ‘someone’ said it was bad to wash them. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!!!!
I reallllllly want to get that message out there!!! I dont know why people are so against washing mushrooms!
Still see it repeated on cooking shows and I want to reach into the screen and shake them. Old Wive's Tale repeated over and over. Thank you ATK for actually doing an experiment and discovering that even after soaking in water, they take on almost no moisture.
I always thought that mushies get spongy when you wash them, but its not like you're soaking them in water!!
Besides, who wants all that dirt in the mushroom stock??
I hadn't heard anyone say not to wash mushrooms. That's absurd. I know they're like sponges. Wash and set aside to let them dry for a bit if that bothers you. I used to live near a mushroom farm back in the day. Dumptrucks would leave piles of cow manure in a field - literal manure - and soon the mountains of manure would be covered with mushrooms. So it's not just dirt on them, it's manure. Wash them.
It's not that it's bad to do - I just don't think it's necessary. It won't hurt you.
Before the "Italian pasta police" comes, we actually do this in Italy. It's called "pasta risottata" and it's delicious. I do this with penne, mushrooms and peas.
BTW elbow macaroni IS pasta 😂
@Maya82: Would you please be so kind to share your recipe with me?
@@Mumbamumba
It's so easy that you really don't need a recipe.
@@lxmzhg You must be the most unhelpful person in the village.
@@BurtlockerIts a fact. If you watch this video, you will know how to do it.
Unless you never cooked before...
im gonna try your recipe i make it but different curious about this no boiled water
Others have already commented this, but thanks again for advocating for washing mushrooms! Anything else touching dirt and or manure we wash before eating…
hahah thanks for always being here and sticking around so long!! Always love seeing your comments!
and I dont get the anti wash crowd on mushrooms haha
Aren't mushroom now grown on peat moss and not earth and manure?
Personally I wash all fruits and veggies because hygiene is not the same everywhere, but I make sure to wash the top and not let water inside. Then I quickly wipe them off.
@@linedezainde pretty sure many of them still are. Isn’t that the definition of coprophilous fungi? Also I live not too far from some mushroom farms and driving by you can definitely smell the manure.
Dirt its all the secret flavor baby
Besides people pick and pack the mushrooms, yes? I don’t trust their hygiene practices.
One day I got lazy and just dumped my pasta sauce over some rigatoni without adding water [added some veg and basil] and was amazed at how the pasta starch made the sauce creamy!
Later I tried making curry with bow tie pasta in a frying pan [using only a little water letting it simmer down and adding more if needed] and it was sooo good.
It always annoys me when my husbands boils a giant pot of water just for a little bit of pasta. I cook all my noodles in just a bit of liquid and they are fine. Tasty even.
am I crazy or does that rosemary at 4:42 look like sage 😅
O m g This is what happens when I’m doing voiceovers at midnight after filming all day! Hahahahaha good catch
@@SauceStache WHAT?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? SAGE ISN'T ROOSSEEMMAARRYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@SauceStache😂 It's okay! We all get that work related brain freeze✌️
Thank you, I rewatched it 3 times thinking wtf am I missing
Thank you for this!
A professional chef specializing in mushrooms, on NPR one Sunday morning made the statement that you MUST wash your mushrooms. You're cooking them so the water gets evaporated amyway...dur dur dur
nah it gets it mushy, when u dont wash it's crispy
@CherryFlower24 what dish are mushrooms crispy in? Just curious.
@@glendaanderson4969 Not a specific dish, but i use it as toppings for rice or pasta. If you want a good Maillard reaction and prevent it to be overcooked then it's better not to wash because it soaks water/ That's how michelin chef do in my country (France)
@@CherryFlower24never had a problem with that, just don't overcrowd the pan
@@atriyakoller136 Even on high heat and not overcrowded, it changes the texture. There is a reason it's recommended to not wash them but instead removed dirt with a damp cloth instead.
I love how you make good food grocery store accessible.
Thank you so much!!!
Yes! And no crazy ingredients that you have to order online and cost a small fortune.
In Italy, we do "pasta risottata", which is more likely making a risotto with pasta, so to speak.... more traditionally pasta is boiled and 2-3 minutes before is ready it is tossed into the saucepan where you have pre-made the sauce and keep on cooking together with the pasta for the last few minutes...using, of course, the pasta boiling water to create that creamy texture that everyone loves...
Thank you for the mushroom message! Everyone gives me a lot of crap for soaking mine. I started growing my own mushrooms last year. I think anyone who thinks they shouldn't. Here is the reason you want to wash or possibly soak them. Portobello and button mushrooms grow in composted manure....so everyone who doesn't wash their mushrooms, please stop eating crap!😂😅
Also, I soak morels in salt water for about 8 minutes. They grow wild all over my property. They aren't brown....that's ALL dirt or sand. They are white. Always cook them! They are slightly toxic raw.
thank you for saying bluntly what i wanted to on my channel cooking mushrooms, and ive tasted dirty ones in resturants grossed me out,thanks for sharing this
I am Italian, I love your channel and I have been cooking pasta literally any way BUT in plain water forever!
I didn't know there was so much hate for vegan butter lol
Literally bizarre. It tastes and behaves exactly the same way as the bovine secretions version.
It's youtube. Remember some commentators are children whose parents are not watching them, some are angry teens, some grown men living in their moms basement etc. People you normally would ignore.
even as Le Meat Eater i never really got the massive spergout over vegan butter in particular
i guess it is what it is for vegan channels
@@funkyfranxdon’t try to make almond roca with it, though.
I'm fully carnivorous and even I like muffin and toast on my vegan butter. Seriously, I cook with tallow and vegan butter over here lol.
Love this pasta method! For me, it started when I made a soup that ended up too soupy, so I threw in cavatappi as well, and the flavor was insanely good! Now I do it as often as possible 👍
Thats awesome!!!! I bet it came out so good!!!
@@SauceStache best pasta I’d ever cooked!
I tried cooking pasta without boiling first and I didn't like the result. This looks fabulous. I like the matching navy tops, too. haha
Well technically this is boiled in water but it's more like when we do rice with the right amount of seasoned water like pilaf, the trick is to add the right amount to pasta that is harder to do with pasta than rice. Too much water and you'll have watery pasta or too cooked pasta, at the opposite you'll have pasta too al dente (but you can easily add some boiling water).
The result is not so different so I don't do this way. Also be careful of the amount of salt because in the normal way you throw it away a great amount in this way you'll eat it all, so put a lot less salt.
@@squarzgreat point re: salt. 👍🏽
I tried this maybe 10 years ago and am also not a fan. What some describe as creamy, I describe as overly starchy which applied to pasta is not complimentary. This reminds me of someone trying to fancy up what is essentially an identical cooking method to hamburger helper pasta dishes.
I do agree that doing this will intensify the flavors absorbed by the pasta sans actual salted pasta water but as spoken to above, the end result is chewy and starchy, not something I want to eat.
I think its a lot more tricky to get right this way. If you boil pasta seperately you strain out all the water at the end and you don't need to measure all precisely how much moisture you boil with. I personally really hate leaving too much moisture in. Ruins the whole pasta. And don't want to overcook it either, So i don't risk it. I have seen people make pasta seperately and then not use a strainer at the end because they don't wanna clean it. Usually leaving too much water that all gets on the plate. Worst of both worlds. That maddens me 🤣.
not even vegan but i love the novel concepts you throw into the recipes
Thank you regarding washing mushrooms! The idea of only wiping or brushing them has always grossed me out and really kept me from eating them for the most part. But I love the taste. I am going to take yours as the final word and not look further so I can eat cleaned mushrooms in peace!
When I make lasagna, I never boil the noodles, I just make sure when I make my spaghetti sauce that it is a runnier? sauce than when I make it for spaghetti. I boughten both, noodles that dont need to be boiled first, but also the ones that you are supposed to boil, and as long as your sauce is liquidy, there is never any problem, the noodles come out perfectly. It is so much easier.
I love this recipe. In my country this would be a “guiso”, but it’s usually cooked with cheaper ingredients such as vegetables and other stuff.
I bet it's awesome!! will research some Guiso!!
What country would that be?
@@lxmzhg Argentina 🇦🇷
@@SauceStache “guiso de fideos” or “guiso carrero”
The fact that you zoomed in on Monica dropping the noodle is very humorous to me
I love that you're teaching the varities of cooking. Have fun and take your time, it's ok to play with your food again.
Awesome. Vegan butter makes it creamy and flavourful. 😊
Yes it does!!!
I assume it’s controversial because non vegans want cow butter and the whole food plant based crowd doesn’t want partial foods like oil. It’s basically the ethical vegans who aren’t super health conscious that would go for it.
Hard to imagine someone being upset about it though. Just use real butter or no butter depending on what you want.
This recipe looks great! I already make my lasagna without pre-boiling any of the dry pasta and it comes out so good and flavorful, so I can get on board and will incorporate this method into my cooking too! Small point - at 4:45 you mention fresh rosemary but you are chopping up what looks like sage. I'm sure either would be a tasty addition!
The reason why you need to boil your lasagna dry-pasta sheet is because usually, you wanna create a nest that once it is filled up with ragu and more dry-pasta sheet you can close it up at the top avoiding any filling to escape, keep it moist and create a more compact lasagna that doesn't fall-apart (also better cook the lasagna the day before, let it sit overnight and reheat in the oven the following day: amazing.....saying that there is nothing wrong with not boiling the dry-pasta sheet
I wash my mushrooms too.
Boom!!!! You rock!! I was hoping for more comments like these!!!
Whoever doesnt wash their food before they eat!??
@@MercyForTheInnocent many people think you should just wipe mushrooms with a damp towel. I wash mine.
@@MercyForTheInnocentmeat-eaters? you’re not supposed to wash meat at all, but I can understand why you wouldn’t include that as a vegan :)
Good deal. I found to take a small dry paint brush to clean dirt off of the mushrooms
works pretty good
Many years ago I saw Alton brown clean mushrooms three ways. He weighed them before and after. One was a damp towel, 1 was
Under running water and I think one he's soaked em. Can't remember for sure. But the weight difference before & after washing was nothing, so yes I wash my mushrooms. Especially store bought button shrooms that are filthy.
This looks so yummy, will definitely be getting it. Except I'll use onions & garlic rather than shallots. I've tried them & I reckin my palate isn't sophisticated enough to justify the cost. lol
I've cooked one pot pasta & rice dishes like this for decades. I was raised only by my dad so ate a lot of hamburger helper as a kid. Same premise, but now we make it taste good lol. Thanks for a great video.
This looks absolutely amazing. Thank you for the recipe!
Greetings from Thailand. I love your recipe, man. Ive made something similar(?) boiling the pasta and mushrooms together, then reduce and add the flavors. Perhaps different, but still utilizes both the mushroom stock and pasta starch. I will try your method. You rock! Thank you for your content! ❤
I’m definitely preparing this for family and friends. It looks delectable. Thank you for sharing ❤
I've already been using this "risoto-like" pasta but making a veggie broth on the fly like that is another level. Cheers
I can’t believe you did not go for the dad joke that cavatappi is elbow macaroni with a twist.😢
This looks so great! Definitely one to try. Thank you 😊
Thank you soo much!!! Hope you enjoy!!
Thank you for this!! I just made the most delicious dish and used my mushroom broth to let the uncooked pasta cook. It was really good!! I have always made my lasagna with out boiling first but had not thought about the other pastas. You have amazing recipes and I love the fact that you are so creative, adventurist and transparent!! I don't use oils, sugars or gluten...so I make some adjustments but they are still great!! Thanks again!!! :) PS I too, always wash my mushroom throughly!! Right on!
I love the efficiency of this, too, what a cool way to do a pasta meal. *high-fives*
Next video: stop cutting your vegetables with a KNIFE 😂
OMG you just gave me an idea!
@@SauceStache glad!
Looks very good, will surely try it out with a combo of veggies. Thank You Sauce Stache - Mark Thompson 🙂👍
Thank you!!!!
Request you to try out some Indian dishes. Many of them are normally Vegan. Will share some recipes if needed.
Pasta absorbs its own weight in water to get to Al dente. So, you can calculate the amount of broth by weight.
I made this tonight since I had a bunch of farmer’s market mushrooms in the fridge, and it was delicious! Thank you for this easy and yummy meal!
SO there's NO water in that cup of water OR the broth...thats made with water... Got it 😂🎉
this reminds me of a mushroom Stroganhoff without the cream, I am going to try this recipe but I'm going use coconut milk, aminos and other seasonings. I love your recipes, keep up the great work!!!!
yes i was thinking same
We love this. Made this for dinner. Thanks for the recipe!❤
Love the video! As an Italian I would say that elbow pasta IS pasta… it’s probably not as used as other ones but it is indeed pasta.
In Italy we usually use this cooking technique for our “risotto” (rice) and it makes it taste really good!
Also I never heard about this thing of not washing your mushrooms… I have a close cousin of mine that worked (and still does) in various Michelin starred restaurants (in Italy, France and Japan) and when I help him cook whenever he comes visit us he always made me wash the mushrooms (when he needed it)… so is it a mushroom type thing? Maybe some of them don’t need to be washed because they’ve already been washed?
Quite confusing to be honest😂
To be honest, I would have ruled my eyes at "vegan butter" until my mom got this fancy stuff for when we had vegan relatives come over. I had some on toast and man it was amazing
Same thing just happened to my dad... he doesnt roll his eyes haha but he definitely isnt shopping for vegan butter.
Last time he was in town he just used ours vs going to get his own butter and he loved it. He said hes going to just start getting that now. Same thing happened with vegan mayo
Don't wash your mushrooms? Wait until you chomp down on a grain of sand. $1700 for a new dental crown.
okay this looks absolutely incredible and i am MAKIN IT for the fam when they come over next week
Made it with butterfly pasta and it’s so light and yummy! 😊 Thank you for this!
I had to double check to see if this was a Adam Ragusea video! Your voice, inflection is much like Mr Ragusea’s. Are you two from the same area?
It's not that you don't want to wash them, it's that you don't want to run them under running tap water, which they will then absorb. Mythical Kitchen tested it, it proved out -- running your mushrooms under tap water gives you disappointing mushrooms. "They will be fine" is not a high bar, when it also means "They will be worse than if you do the other things."
Definitely trying this, thank you. I've been doing the soaking method ever since I saw that video of yours and I'll still do it for baked pasta dishes but I'm eager to try this for a stovetop dish.
Thanks for the mushroom washing PSA. So many people spout nonsense because they heard it 'somewhere' and don't have the inclination to find out if it's true.
A completely unverified source indicates pasta absorbs roughly 1.5 times its weight in water. You'll lose some to evaporation but that might be a good starting point for the nerdy nitpickers, er, analytically minded among use. Full disclosure: I'm totally measuring it.
FWIW peanut butter isn't 'butter' either...yeesh
It only makes a tiny bit of sense to wash mushrooms because there could be chicken or horse manure and / or chemicals in the dirt. It is like not putting your clams in clean water with corn starch to get them to spit out the dirt and digestion in the belly. I've been washing mushrooms for years. This recipe looks banging, thank you!
Thank you so much!!!
All liquids contain water. You're still using water; you're just not cooking the pasta in plain, salted boiling water.
To be fair, not all liquids contain water. Ones we cook with do, but plenty of chemicals are liquids that don't contain water.
😮 oh hai captain Obvius
I made Filipino pancit a few months ago for the first time and the recipe said to use one pot for all the stages of cooking (veggies, meats, noodles) and you use the same broth as you progress along. The noodles came out SO FREAKING FLAVORFUL! I am now cooking all my pasta this way. I also cook any type of rice in chicken broth instead of water. BOMB!
Im super excited to try this recipe. My wife absolutely loves when i cook. Im going grocery shopping for the ingredients tomorrow. Im going to add a few more ingredients. After we have eaten Ill leave a feed back. Thanks for the recipe.
I was craving some pasta so I'm gonna try this tonight. Thanks!
It's so good!!! Enjoy!!
I’ve been craving mushroom risotto. Will definitely try this ❤
@saucestache Completely agree about washing the mushrooms, also submerging them for a couple seconds, whatever; i've never had a hard time browning them after that and would much rather do that and even squeeze them out or even dehydrate them for a little bit than eat tons of [often crunchy] dirt, etc. I'd also rather pour out or dab up some water while cooking, which I have and I still get browning easily, than eat crunchy mealy dirt, etc
Thank you!! Yeah ive never had a problem cooking mushrooms after washing, theyve always browned up just fine... ive even fried washed mushrooms and they came out perfect!
I usually submerge them and then put them in a salad spinner to help dry them. Works great.
Great tip!
That looks delicious. Thank you for the idea
I made this tonight and it turned out amazing! I did add a vegetables to it and some nutritional yeast!
This looks great, I’ll be making this for dinner tonight . Thank you!
The only "problem" with washing mushrooms is that they can get pretty slimy, but that's not a good reason to not do it. Wash them and if you feel that they get too hard to handle with the slimy surface simply rub them with a lint-free paper or cloth towel.
If you're not going for exact measurements, I would err on the side of less vegetable/mushroom broth. Can always add in the water later if the amount of broth doesn't get the pasta al dente with all the flavors still in the pan, but it'd be a waste not knowing what to do with the excess broth. Don't wanna overboil your pasta when having to cook it off.
I can not wait to try this! Thank you!
I did this for the first time a few weeks ago and made a creamy chickpea pasta. The pasta turned out so creamy with this method of cooking. It's defo worth it if you have a bit of time and don't mind standing over it.
This is my third time making this awesome pasta! Amazing
This looks delicious!
Definitely going to try this!
Hope you like it!
Great Couple. The ideas amazing. And Mud waters getting on our shopping list. 😊
Looks fantastic!
Awesome, thanks mate. I cook for myself with a very limited repertoire. Can do a lot with this.
You basically made a version of Hamburger Helper.
Macaroni, sauce packet, milk, water & browned off ground beef. Bring to boil over med heat, turn down to med-low when boiling, stir, let simmer for 10 minutes, stir, leave to simmer for another 10 minutes, stir, serve.
Either way you do it, you're basically boiling the macaroni and the beef with the liquids and sauce. You say your butter is vegan. All butter is vegan. Cows are vegan. They eat grasses, legumes, alfalfa, clover, and hay to produce milk which is turned into butter. Your "oil" substitute for Real Butter™is no equal substitute.
Looks really delicious! I wonder if maybe adding just a smidge of vegemite or marmite might increase the umami? Just a thought. Love your channel!
I bet that would be awesome!! Thank you!!
Also, I just ordered me some mudwtr using your link! I'm so excited to try it. I have lupus and I could totally use the immune support and good stuff for my gut health!@@SauceStache
I'm inspired!! Looks great :)
I love the concept of one pot pasta but I am always SO SO scared of messing up the ratios and ending up with watery or overcooked pasta :D The "risotto approach" of adding the broth bit by bit is actually genius - I might finally give this concept a go!
Also, I always love how you address the mean comments in advance, makes me chuckle every single time XD
Cool. I am going to try this next time I make a pasta dish. Yum.
Well the point is: Use liquid! You can also cook you pasta with just broth and eat it together with it. Using water is just the more common way. Not everyone has or wants to use wine and/or broth.
I bet using a pressure cooker will make this even better, & faster
LOVE THAT THING!
Looks amazing!
I thought I was the only one... After I discovered spaghetti a la asesina ( pretty much boiling the spaghettis directly in the soouce ) I've been doing it with a lot of toppings, directly mixing spaghetti to absorb juices / sauces
Looks great! Scrumptious. ❤️ 🥰
Vegan butter is margarine.
That's an amazing recipe! I never imagined pasta could be made like risotto.
omg, this looks AmAzInG!!!!!
Stop Boiling Pasta in WATER ...proceeds to use water to boiled the pasta LOL
I love this approach!! I will probably add a dash of cream at the end, but just because OMG alla funghi vibes. Also, you used conjoined twins elbow macaroni!! 😂 Thank you for this vid xx
I definitely like it, yummy 😋 delicious mushroom pasta
Thank you for your video
It is Lent. I will be doing a mushroom and pasta dish Friday. I always wash my mushrooms so thanks for the hit on the purists that like to eat dirt. Tomato juice which has no added weird ingredients makes a very good sauce when you cook the pasta in it.
The irony of all the people freaking out over "vegan butter" when they all likely use margarine regularly already
Yes, I think (actually, I know from experience) that you could make it more awesome. Try making your own fresh pasta from fresh milled whole grain flour. You could make the pasta as a traditional egg noodle or use a spicy tomato juice instead of egg. And you could try different wheat berries such as hard red or hard white. And in doing so you also pump up the nutritional value as well. Be advised that if you don't dry the pasta it will cook in about 2 minutes depending on what shape you extrude.
I've been washing my mushrooms for years with great results, and any video suggesting I shouldn't has been ignored. I will give them a small nugget of validation as I am sure with the porous sponges they are will retain some water, but that will cook out anyway.
I make that but I use beef broth to cook my mushrooms in. You can also put a block of cream cheese in it.
Mushrooms standing outside - when it rains - and doesn't perish/go bad. I don't understand people who are afraid of quick washing the mushrooms. I don't want you to soak them, just a quick rinse.
Love this idea, thanks.
Making this tonight with elbow macaroni and maybe a cup of TVP along with the mushrooms! Looks great!
Washing mushrooms that will be eaten immediately is fine. If you wash then store them for any more than a few hours, they will begin to turn dark and rot. In food service we used a cosmetics brush to clean large amounts of shrooms and they buff up fine.
Great tip! Thanks
I've been cooking pasta all wrong, one pan to clean, controlled el dente, and so many veggies etc. to add to the pasta! Thank You 🙏🙏
Best way to wash mushrooms (and leafy greens) is to submerge them in water (in a big bowl) All the dirt comes out. Change the water until it's completely clear (washing 3 times is usuall enough)
0:45 I don't understand the fear of mushroom dirt because it is not dirt but compost. I simply brush it off with a vegetable brush and have never had a problen. And yes I understand that when you cook mushrooms any water will be cooked off.
Love this idea. We all need to save water. And one pot sounds great.
III’MMM elbow macaroni with A few extra bits 😂
Thanks for another great recipe!
My pleasure 😊 Thank you!
Dude: add tons of mushroom
Dude: taste mushroomy
