Water to pasta ratio (lemmy.ca)

Hello!

I just noticed on a package of pasta I bought that it encouraged a 10:1 water to pasta ratio. That is 1 litre of water per 100 g pasta. A standard pack of pasta would require 5 liters of water.

Is this totally normal to you? What's your ratio?

I think I'm somewhere slightly less than 3:1 for my standard pasta boil.

Thanks. That article was great. I feel like I’ve been cooking pasta all wrong, for all these years.
