    I assume that’s basically plain pasta? Or are we talking American portions?

    Because in most of the world it’s 70-90g. If you’re going with heavy dishes it’s sometimes down into 50-60g.

    • Not American portions, but for a dish that is centered around pasta. Usually with a light tomatoe sauce, aglio e olio or something like that. And I like to have a second helping, so that’s included.

      If you’re going for a casserolle or something else with lots of Cheese, a thick and creamy sauce, or relevant amounts of meat and/or vegetables to go with it, you’ll need less than that.

        I like to eat a small bowl with sauce, then make a truly deranged second small bowl – butter, olive oil, that trash-ass Parmesan or whatever blend is kicking around in the fridge, adobo, black pepper, chili flakes
