Macaroni comes from Italy and is also one of Italy’s famous dishes.

Macaroni, a pastry chef in Naples, Italy, built the world's first macaroni processing factory. It is said that the inspiration came from his daughter. Macaroni is also called macaroni. Since it is a pasta, it must be a starch-containing food.

There are many types of macaroni, which are generally made from starch-rich grains. At the beginning, macaroni was made from a type of durum wheat called "durum". It is processed from ground semolina, and the semolina ground from durum wheat is also called "sand noodles".

But in recent years, Switzerland and Italy have been the first to research and use ordinary wheat flour to directly make macaroni without using the original raw material "Duron wheat". The gluten of "Duron wheat" is relatively tough. During the processing, auxiliary materials such as eggs, disodium phosphate, onions, garlic, salt and milk powder also need to be added.

How to judge whether macaroni is cooked

Macaroni is divided into two types: macaroni and solid. Solid ones are usually long strips or other shapes, while macaroni is like Like a tube. The cooking time of macaroni and solid macaroni are different. Solid macaroni may be more difficult to cook, while some macaroni are smaller and easier to cook.

If you want to save cooking time when eating macaroni, it is best to choose smaller macaroni so that it will cook more easily. Some macaroni packaging bags will have the cooking time marked on them. You can pay a little attention when buying them, so you don't need to think about how long to cook them.

The standard for judging whether the macaroni is cooked is that after cooking, if the bite cuts are the same color, it means it is cooked. If there are white spots in the middle, it means it is not yet cooked. When cooking macaroni, after the water boils, add cold water several times until it is cooked through. During the cooking process, stir a few times, otherwise the macaroni will easily stick to the bottom of the pot.
