Perfect Pasta in Minutes!

I have been telling everyone that making pasta in the pressure cooker is revolutionary. It takes only a few minutes. I can't believe it. All you do is put dry pasta in the cooker and add just enough water to cover the noodles and a bloop of olive oil. The oil is crucial for controlling the foaming. Close the lid and heat the pressure cooker. When the regulator starts jiggling, time the pasta for 2 minutes for regular or tricolor and 4 minutes for wholegrain pasta. General rule of thumb is that it is half the cooking time as what is printed on the package. Cool the cooker under cold water to release the pressure and then open the lid and pour the noodles through a colander. Enjoy!
