He's so gross to look at. ๐Ÿคฎ๐Ÿคฎ๐Ÿคฎ

[โ€“] Quetzalcutlass@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

His head shape is so weird. Look at it from the side. It's fucking rhombus-shaped. Combined with his forward tilt he looks like some kind of ghoul.

the trump stained tupperware is specifically for in-laws to take leftovers home in

Missed opportunity for "trumpoware"

Spaghetti doesnt do this. The red sauce does.

Mom: Can you put the leftover spaghetti in a tupperware, please?

Me: sure (proceeds)

Mom: No, no, honey, just the actual spaghetti pasta, not the sauce it's forever-entwined-with, lest we ruin a meme.

Me: (in therapy)

Iโ€™m sorry, you put back the spaghetti unlaundered?

[โ€“] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Personally if I'm going to have leftover spaghetti, I only mix pasta and sauce one portion at a time, and store them separately.

The real pros know to only refrigerate the sauce and make more pasta as needed.

[โ€“] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

This is the way.

I boil a couple of gallons of water on Sunday and freeze it for the rest of the week so I can quickly make new pasta.

[โ€“] stepintomydojo@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You should try dehydrating your boiling water so it's quicker when you need it, instead of having to wait for it to defrost.

Last time I did that I burnt the bottom out of my best stock pot.

[โ€“] LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyz 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The trick is to take it off the stove the second the last molecule of water evaporates.

Evaporates?

Iโ€™m trying to dehydrate it.

As if I'm running out of pasta before sauce

[โ€“] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 3 points 3 months ago (3 children)

I usually find it better to store them separately, since whenever I store them mixed together, the sauce seems to absorb into the noodles, making the noodles soggy and the sauce dry and not saucy.

[โ€“] PumaStoleMyBluff@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Try putting the tiniest drizzle of olive oil on the pasta after draining it but before saucing it

[โ€“] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (3 children)

How the hell would you store unsauced spaghetti without it all sticking together?

[โ€“] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 2 points 3 months ago

I usually find that upon reheating it stops sticking so much? Ive not really had much issue with that unless I'm trying to eat it cold, which isnt very enjoyable anyway.

[โ€“] 69420@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Literally any liquid will do, but olive oil is typical. Adding water before you reheat works too in a pinch.

[โ€“] sangriaferret@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Save some pasta water and heat it in a pan with the noodles and they should separate. Add sauce and reheat the whole thing in the pan.

[โ€“] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Sounds like my method of adding sauce to spaghetti right after cooking is considerably simpler. Seeing as I'd want that sauce when I'm eating later anyway.

[โ€“] FireRetardant@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

It also allows people to have their own sauce to noodle ratio when served and stored this way.

[โ€“] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Someone on Reddit mentioned once that their friend puts sauce on spaghetti, mixes the sauce in, and then rinses the spaghetti with water so only a hint of the sauce taste remains.

[โ€“] darkdemize@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You mix the noodles and the sauce in the same pot?

[โ€“] mysticpickle@lemmy.ca 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Isn't the sauce already mixed in with the noodles when you dump it out of the can? ๐Ÿค”

[โ€“] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Your award for pedantry will be arriving soon.

[โ€“] TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago

Thank you, i don't usually eat spaghetti with tomato sauce, so you helped me understand the meme.

[โ€“] morphballganon@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

"Spaghetti" is often shorthand for spaghetti marinara.

[โ€“] LodeMike@lemmy.today 1 points 3 months ago

Thank you, morph ball gannon at lemmy nsfw.

[โ€“] obvs@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Wipe it dry with dry paper towels before you wash it with soap and water. No stains!

[โ€“] BanMe@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago

All that manual effort, eww. A quick spray with Pam before it hits the dishwasher makes it pristine, gives the stain something to bond to so the soap can take it away.
