Noodles

Of course everybody knows what noodles are, but does anybody know how there made or how to cook them. I know I do and you will too after reading this blog if you didn't know. Now there are also many different kinds of noodles; and some can be used in different recipes, like manicotti noodles witch you put cheese in and roll up or lasagna noodles, the big long noodles. My Nona use to make gnocchi with me when I was very young. She would make her gnocchi with her special ingredients and when they became the texture of what they should be, she would make little balls and then take her fork and make an imprint of the fork on the gnocchi. To cook the noodles of penne for an example; you start out by boiling water and when the water is done boiling take a table spoon of salt and put it in the water for a few seconds the water will stop boiling but when it starts again to boil you should put in the noodles. After five minutes of boiling and stirring the noodles check to see if there ready by taking one of the noodles out and put it under cold water and see if it's ready. If it's not ready keep checking it. Have you ever wondered how to eat them with a fork and spoon well it's simple. Simply take one utensil in to one hand and the other in the other hand and swirl the fork in the pasta and put it on your spoon and twirl it even more on your spoon and put it in you mouth.
