4 servings: 500 g
1 serving: 500 g
3 servings: 500 g

I always cook the whole package. I can eat leftovers later or make some new dish out of it the next day.

You see that hole? That's enough for 1 serving.

between 70-500g per person. Hope it helps.

1 person: what fits in the hole when you place your index finger against the first joint in your thumb. 2 person, second joint. three person thumb tip. Smaller rations, loose fit, larger rations tighter fit. Try a few times to adjust for your hand size. It's just a step above eyeballing, but shockingly effective.

Edit: Not that hole, I see you coming. And not coming that way. Jeez, the infantilism!

125 grams of dried pasta per person, as a main course usually works fine for me.

Instead of measuring out your pasta, have you considered switching to Linux?

I feel like a fatass because I never need to measure spaghetti. One box is two servings.

I keep seeing variations of this theme. My mom always does the opposite. Like 12 people are coming over for thanksgiving or Christmas and she makes one little bag of noodles.

1g per 1kg of your weight. So for someone who weighs 100kg you use 100g of pasta.

Cook it all. Save what you don't eat in a sealed container in the refrigerator. Cooked noodles are so useful. Fry them with chili paste, yum yum! Make peanut sauce and eat them cold. Even just tossed with sesame oil and salt they are pretty good.

I once made spaghetti without water

125g per person if you only eat that, 80 to 100 if you eat something else too

Good brands you can usually find outside of italy with not outrageous prices are Rummo and Garofalo, less good but still okay, and at a generally lower price, you can usually find Voiello or De Cecco

Barilla is the most common, but outside of their spaghetti I'm not a big fan

There are a bunch of others, but these tend to be easier to find

That's all, thank you for coming to my TED talk

Get some containers and keep leftovers. Cooking more than you will eat in one sitting saves your future self some work.

If you are a guy then its an easy measurement. Make an o with your finger and thumb the girth of your erect dick. That's your dick width of pasta serving. No more. No less!

Can never make too much pasta. Better too much than too little. Can always throw the leftovers in the fridge and microwave it the day after or make a lunch box. Of course, if you are struggling with overeating, then idk. Make to little maybe.

I have the amounts and cooking time written under the lid of each food item so that I don't need to ever think how much I need.
