Prevent Pasta Water From Boiling Over – A Helpful Recipe Tip From – Kid Friendly Things To Do

This is something that used to drive me nuts. Inevitably, while cooking pasta, the boiling water would bubble over the sides of the pot and create a big mess. Then, I discovered this trick.

  • Canola Oil works wonders, here.
  • If you forget and catch the pot about to boil over, quickly add cooking oil to the boiling pot. It will calm right down.
