How Do You Start The Linguine With Shrimp And Capers?
You’ve decided to make linguine with shrimp and capers for dinner. You have your linguine in one hand and a pot of water on the stove, but are unsure of what to add to the water and how long to cook the pasta to get it perfect. Here are some tips on how to cook linguine and some extra flavoring ideas. Fill a large pot with water. Set it on the stove and turn the heat to high to boil the water. When the water comes to a rolling boil, add the salt and olive oil. If you want more flavorful linguine, toss in a few garlic cloves to the boiling water. Add the linguine to the pot of boiling water. You can add the linguine in whole pieces or you can break it up before putting it in the water. This results in smaller and more manageable pieces when you serve it. Keep the linguine boiling until it reaches your desired consistency. Many people prefer their linguine to be al dente, which means the pasta is still tender but firm when bitten. To cook linguine al dente, boil it for around 8 minutes.
