I like Chrome Remote Desktop for ease of use and for the ability to get to all of my machines no matter where I am. Great when using Chromebooks, too.

I have never done this myself either, as I love cooking with very salty water and then draining the excess. I like how if allows just the right amount of saltiness in the pasta itself. And that doesn’t work the same way, if you keep all of the cooking water.

But I know that this is a popular technique that has been around for a good while now. I personally haven’t felt the need to add it to my repertoire, but I don’t think it’s wrong per se. So, yes, go ahead and give it a try. If you like it, keep cooking that way. If you don’t like it, then at least you understand what you enjoy about your current way of making pasta dishes.

That sounds like an accurate summary. It’s not a particularly fancy or technical dish, but it’s not meant to. Instead, it’s a good recipe to get people started on cooking basic recipes and not be scared by ingredients. It also encourages you to experiment, and it’s fast and easy, so you can make it on a weeknight.

These are all good things. If you already know how to do all of the above, you probably won’t even need a recipe and you can improvise dishes like this very easily. You probably also already know a bunch of different techniques and can decide when they are appropriate. But everybody has to start somewhere, and this particular recipe wouldn’t be a bad idea to do that.
