How to Prepare for 'Al Dente' Pasta
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add a generous pinch of sea salt. Add the Penne Rigate and boil uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 11 minutes for authentic 'al dente' texture. For a more tender pasta, boil for an additional minute. Drain well and serve immediately with your preferred sauce.
