boost to terrify an italian

@ptrc
on rare occasions it makes sense (e.g., in soups, or with beans or chickpeas - somewhat shorter though, but ok), so I'm not terrified ;-)

@waltertross @ptrc I always do that because otherwise they don’t fit in the pan. What else am I supposed to do???

@ocean @ptrc a) you need a pot rather than a pan, b) after a minute or so you can bend the spaghetti enough to fully drown them

@waltertross @ptrc yeah I meant pot, it's not my first language

I know about b) but that's why I cut them, no need to wait anymore and then they all are equally cooked, the top is not one minute less cooked than the bottom

@ocean @ptrc you'll never notice the difference in cooking, and if you break them, it becomes almost impossible to roll them up with the fork. There are hundreds of kinds of "pasta corta" (short pasta) if you find rolling up the "pasta lunga" too difficult

@waltertross @ptrc yeah I don't roll them up.
thank you, people keep telling me it's a crime without explaining why, now I finally understand there is a reason why you would not to break them
