00:00 Most traditional recipes for making pasta tell you to start out with lots and lots of water and heat it up to the boil before you add the pasta.
00:11 It turns out that you don't need to do that. You can save a lot of time, a lot of water, a lot of energy by starting out with cold water and a frying pan.
00:19 Put the pasta in the frying pan, pour a quart and a half or so of water on top of the pasta, turn on the heat,
