Eating And Storage Tips

I’m not the biggest fan of this cold. I find that everything coagulates a bit too much and the texture just becomes a bit blerg.

It can however be reheated in the microwave but if you plan to do this make sure you reserve some extra pasta water to sprinkle in there at the time or sauce will become claggy.

I suppose what I am trying to say is I would strongly suggest just making enough for what you need and eating it fresh.

You could add in a fresh extra things to this such as some finely diced bell pepper or some grated carrot too if you want some extra fresh vegetables added in there (especially as a bonus if you want to keep volume but reduce pasta/carb consumption).
