RE: #11/365 -- Tasty Evening Snacks Within Few Minutes

It does look yummy, and healthy too!

I wish I could cook but I'm not too interested in learning I guess, or I would have already learned! So I have a dumb question - why this step in the cooking procedure?

Then i washed it three to four times properly with water and let it to strain all the water.

I'm sure there is a good reason to do this, I am just uneducated in cooking!

The girl (your niece?) is ready to enjoy the meal! Great pics, thanks for sharing! :)

That's a reasonable question. I don't how people in other countries cook it, but in India this is the most followed procedure for all pasta and noodles.

  • First reason for this is that because when we boil it, it release a thick white sticky starch like which need to be washed out for non-sticky and non-starchy flavor.
  • Another is that in India, it is sold openly in markets, because of which there may be dust inside the holes which came out while boiling and washing 2-3 times, wash it out completely.

Thank you for asking your doubt😊. And that's my neighboring aunt's girl, not my niece😅.

Have a great day😇✌.

Thanks for your answer, I feel a lot smarter now! 😃

Hope you have a great day too!
