Since cheese is a solid, the rules for cups and ounces will change. If you melt the cheese, then 8 oz. would be considered a cup. Solid cheese is measured by weight but when melted it will be measured by volume. Still have a question? Contact us!
We only recommend rinsing for cold salads to stop the cooking time. Rinsing pasta that is intended to be served in a hot dish with hot water will lower its temperature and may also cause more starch, which will make the pasta sticky. You should, however, rinse Gluten Free pasta with warm water. Still have a question? Contact us!
Either way is fine. But keep in mind that if pasta is cooked with broth, a cloudier broth will result. For hearty soups, this is usually not important. If cooking pasta in broth, be sure to start with an extra amount of broth since pasta will absorb roughly 25% of the liquid. Still have a question? Contact us!
We do not recommend American Beauty® Quick Cook pasta for baked pasta dishes. For best results, use regular American Beauty pasta. Still have a question? Contact us!
If you are using a similar cut, you can substitute evenly. Otherwise, you will need to follow the cooking directions that are specified on the package of pasta you are substituting. Still have a question? Contact us!
We recommend only heating short cuts (such as elbows, penne, rotini) in the microwave. Long cuts, such as spaghetti, linguine, fettuccine, etc., do not cook well in the microwave. Microwave water on high heat (100%) in a 3 qt. microwave safe bowl for 5 to 9 minutes or until boiling; carefully stir in pasta. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 7 to 9 minutes, or just until tender. (This is for 1 serving of pasta. The amount of water is the same whether on the stove or in the microwave.)

Yes. Pasta dishes may be prepared up to 24 hours ahead of time, refrigerated (covered) and then baked. They may also be prepared and frozen (unbaked) for up to 2 months. For quality reasons, we do not recommend freezing baked lasagna. Still have a question? Contact us!
We do not recommend freezing uncooked pasta. Our pasta products should be stored in a cool, dry place for maximum freshness. Glass or metal containers are recommended for storing dry products. Still have a question? Contact us!
We do not recommend cooking pasta in a slow cooker. It must be cooked in boiling water to gelatinize the starches which keep the pasta together and prevent it from becoming mushy and pasty. Still have a question? Contact us!
We do not recommend boiling this product since it is precooked. Oven Ready pasta is designed to re-hydrate in typical lasagna recipes. Boiling can result in starchy broken pieces that are difficult to separate. Still have a question? Contact us!
