Spaghetti expirements

Here are the distilled notes from our spaghetti experiment this last weekend.

-It takes 1.5 gallons of water and 45 minutes to cook one package (11 bowls) of spaghetti.

-A tasty anchovy sauce can be made with garlic, olive oil, and anchovies. It's easily prepared during the time while the spaghetti is boiling.



Here are the advanced notes from our resident chemist:

• 6 qt of water to one package of spaghetti
• Estimated 8 qt water for 2 packages ~ 4 qt water per package of spaghetti
• homemade anchovy sauce serves 15 bowls ~ 1/4 cup per bowl
- 1/5 bottle of oil
- 3 can of anchovies
- 4 cloves of garlic peeled and diced and onions
• home made sauce took approximately 1 hour for 1 competent person to make.
• Prego (container is about 8cups) ~ 1/4 cup per bowl
- 30 bowls
• 6 qt water took 30 minutes to boil on camp stove. [in the 12qt pot]
• 1 package of pasta takes 15 minutes from putting the pasta in the water to being done.
- takes about 10 minutes to cook once it's all in the water and water is back to boiling.
• 1 package of spaghetti made 11 bowls.
• We can use this info to figure out how much water is needed.
