When you think theyвЂ™re done, test a bit early, and test more than one noodle!Д«ut back to the salad вЂ“ it doesnвЂ™t hurt either that there are a few easy ways to modify this recipe. The timing starts when the noodles begin their boil, and if the pot looks like it will overflow, usually a quick stir and turning down the heat does the trick, if not nudge it off the burner for a minute. Once the noodles start to boil, turn the heat down to a simmer and watch the pot so it doesnвЂ™t boil over. Best of all, thereвЂ™s not much to it and if you can boil noodles, you can make it! By the way, if youвЂ™re new to boiling noodles, read the chart on the back of the box or bag, use a bigger pot and more water than you think youвЂ™ll need, cover the pot when heating the water (it gets up to a boil a bit faster) and gently stir as the noodles go in and after it comes to a boil so they donвЂ™t stick to the bottom.
