#2Serious eats does amazing writing and research. Always a great reference and I go back often.
If your going to follow the pasta directions, then make some cookies for desert: https://www.seriouseats.com/the-food-lab-best-chocolate-chip...

#3This is pretty standard cooking stuff, I thought. At least in Australia I haven’t seen pasta sauce served on top of pasta in a restaurant for decades.

#4Surely the correct-correct response is "however the eater likes it"
Example, my kids. If it isn't separate they won't touch it.

#6Happy to learn that I'm not the only one who hates the volcano pasta thing. For some reason people think it's fancy and sophisticated, but it's nonsense.
Sauce is an integral part of the dish and not some optional garnish. The two components of the dish must be properly fused together for optimal experience!

#7It seems to be pasta day today on HN. So I heartily recommend Spaghetti all’Assassina - eschew the boiling step altogether and cook the pasta directly in the pan with the sauce.

As a kid, I thought that that was the proper way to serve pasta, thanks to Big Pasta indoctrination via tv shows and ads.
I'm happy to announce that I'm now saved and that I've been enjoying my pasta as it was supposed to be enjoyed: pre-sauced!

#10call me mad, but i like the sauce both dumped on top, or mixed in the pan. i do like controlling the cheese myself though. and the pepper - can't stand those waiters coming round with giant phallic grinders!
