I’m told the amount of dry spaghetti that fits through this hole is one portion.
I’ve never tried, first my wife and I had kids that ate like they’ve never been fed before. And now that we’re empty nesters we do meal prep so I still cook the whole batch.
One portion is officially 2 oz. But if pasta is your main course you are going to want 4 oz.
- Cook as much as you feel like.
- Eat until satiated.
- Put the leftovers in a container.
- Place the container in the refrigerator.
- Wake up in the middle of the night.
- Take the container out of the refrigerator.
- Open the container.
- Eat the entire leftovers while the door of the refrigerator is still open as if you were the Italian cousin of the Cookie Monster.
And I never know how many gallons of sauce is appropriate
Must be some kind of new spaghetti breed that grows on the ground. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVo_wkxH9dU

I plan on 4 oz of dry pasta per person. When I buy pasta in bulk boxes I store in 8 oz portions in mason jars. This keeps the moths out and means when I’m cooking for two I just need to grab a jar instead of weighing it out during the cook.
We’ve got a lot of different sized containers that seal. I specifically got a long one for spaghetti (and a pan I can cook it in without bending or breaking the spaghetti, I’m not picky AT ALL). We basically have a 30 gallon bucket of containers of different pastas on the floor or the pantry. Fuck, now I want to eat linguine in lemon butter sauce. And I have a ton of lemons.
70 grams per serving. There.
Make as much as you want to eat?
I weigh food. Because if I don’t, I get enormous.
I think for dried pasta it’s like 75g each, assuming some meaty sauce with it.
Oh leftover pasta is amazing my friend! Look up “pasta bake” recipes.
One pack is the correct size. Alone? One pack. Two people? One pack. Four? One pack. Above that? Two pack.
Easy.
