While cooking the pasta half of the water is often at the plate. You can easily avoid this by using the right tools.
You cook the pasta and keep your eye on the pan. It should be a little distracted, does not interfere with the time - and hot froth splashed on the plate, covering it with sticky ugliness. There is one tool that helps you to never be afraid of the "runaway" of water. Read what this means, and how it operates.
Maybe you've heard that you need to stir the pasta with a wooden spoon? It's true, a wooden spoon will save you from spilling the water and the formation of fluffy foam, but how does it work?
Many people think that wooden spoon helps to reduce the temperature in the center of the pot, which in turn reduces the likelihood of the formation of foam and splashing water. Actually this is not true.
Double help from wooden spoon
When something incapable of absorbing water penetrates the surface of the bubble, it bursts. Dry wooden spoon eats bubbles formed during the boiling time, so that the foam falls off rapidly.
Another reason why it is effective in a spoon made of wood - its slow heating. When the bubble touches something at a temperature below 100 degrees, the vapor condenses, and the bubbles burst.
As the temperature of a wooden spoon for a long time remains below 100 degrees, it's great bursts the bubbles and the foam subsides.
When it does not work
When your spoon heats up with fast chip removal foam stops working - after the agitation of the foam subsides except that a little bit, and then re-formed quickly. Do not attempt to use a metal spoon, because it heats up much faster than wood.
Instead, you can simply blow on the foam. Your breath is clearly below 100 degrees, and the foam shall fade.
Periodically wipe the wooden spoon
From the heat and humidity of a wooden spoon gradually deformed, so it is best to buy a few spoonfuls and change them periodically. If this is not possible, at least make sure the spoon is not under the influence of steam, when you do not interfere with the pasta.
If you do not have a wooden spoon
It is possible to stop the "escaping" water differently, using a kitchen spray anti-adherent products. Such a spray can be easily made to: mix the boiled water and oil in a ratio of 5: 1, and pour it into a spray bottle.
Already during cooking pasta can sprinkle the walls of the pot, and the froth will stop constantly to get out. In addition, your pasta is also not stick to the pan.
And what do you do to out of the pot with the pasta does not "run away" the water?
