Notes

  • Storage:
  • In the refrigerator: Transfer cooled pasta to an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 5 days. 
  • To reheat: Leftovers can be reheated on the stove over low heat or in the microwave. You may need to add a small amount of broth, water or milk to moisten and loosen the noodles.
