I was reading the seven rules post (which I've actually read before) and noticed the phrase "the polar opposite of al dente" and had to laugh. Kind of mean but laugh I did. Over the holidays, I made spaghetti and meatballs for some of my in-laws. And at the preference of her hub, 1) I cracked the noodles in half before adding them to the boiling water and 2) I boiled them to death. Uuuuuuugh.
Good retro links. I really enjoy these!
Sorry, I meant to say SIL's hub.
LOL Melissa! I caught hell from a cousin in Ohio who was deeply offended by an earlier version of that post which used the expression "Ohio-style" pasta. Whoops.
