It happened again; I suffered a kitchen disaster. Boy, do I hate when that happens! This time, I ruined an entire pot of pasta because I got busy and wasn’t paying attention. By the time I realized it, the pasta had cooked beyond al dente, all the way to al mushe. I could barely make out the pasta shape!
It killed me to dump the whole thing and start over, but there was no way to undo that disaster—it was that far gone!
