Do you ever just stand there and watch the water boil?

It really is a beautiful thing, or is it just me?! :confused:

Grrrr, watching and waiting for water to boil is the most dull thing. It's like the pants part of cooking.

Nope...stick pan on...retire to sofa...wait until next advert break...return to kitchen...insert pasta...retire to sofa...wait for next advert break...rescue pasta, place in bowl and sling sauce on top...retire to sofa to eat...wait for next advert break...place empty bowl in sink to soak...get beer...return to sofa.

This provides optimal Mythbusters viewing time, and minimal "lurking in a hot kitchen watching pan boil" time.

Totally wrong!

Boil kettle... insert fresh pasta into pan. Pour over boiling water. Come back 5 minutes later, drain, re-insert, stir in pasta sauce over heat. Voila. :p
