Just a small note that may help when you try it again. For the lemon water, No boiling water and, most importantly, you cant have even a hint of the white rind.

I don't feel like it's a true one pot pasta if you have to cook the pasta separately. That being said, we love the feta pasta here and everything looks delicious!

The lighting on the cooking shots makes everything look extra fresh and tasty.

I love that you are eating it straight out of the pan. Like a legit one dish meal 😂

The first pasta is even better if you use chicken broth instead of water. No need for salt. I need to try that buttered noodle recipe—it looks yummy.

For the feta one I always add chilli flakes, whole garlic, oregano, basil, thyme, marjoram and then afterwards some vinegar! So good

Hey you can speed up your caramelized onions by putting in a pinch of baking soda and mixing it up. The baking soda breaks down the cell walls of the onions and makes the onion juices come out and caramelize. Baking soda also is a great way to make anything brown up faster since it’s so alkaline hence why it’s great for caramelizing onions. You only need a pinch though! It’s super strong. Too much and your onions turn into mush. Also it will change the color and turn it grey if you use anything other than white or yellow onions. Still tastes good though.

Hi Inga. I have a friendly suggestion. I am a fanatic about not having even the slightest bit of bitterness in my dishes. When making the lemon essence, especially with the long steeping time. It's imperative that there is not the slightest trace of pith (the white part) on the peel. I rewatched when you put the first slice of peel into the water and saw the white right away. Hope this helps my friend. I'm going to make the butter one you showed with homemade chciken stock with NO salt that we make here at home. That should solve the Saline dilemna. Love your content my friend. All the best Jim retired Mexico (previously a NJ kid who haunted NYC every week hehehe)

Thank you so much for this video! As a student who loves pasta, I'm always looking to reduce my overall cooktime as boiling pasta separately in a pot takes me more time. I'll definitely be trying out some of these recipes!☺

Welcome back to your apartment, Inga!!

The Caramelized Onion one is so easy to make in the crock pot. During the day while youre out and then you add the goodies at the end - I also do tons of parm and heavy cream instead of coconut milk.

Hi from italy 🇮🇹 this a technique called pasta risottata, generally these are nice but some ingredients are better to sauté first then add the pasta and water. Ad example if you try the first one with garlic onion and olive oil first, cook it a bit, then tomatoes, pasta and water, in the last minute the basil will be much nicer.

[thebakingkarrott]

I’ve GOT to try that garlic butter macaroni!!! And with your miso recommendation! :) Great video Inga! 💗

The tiktok feta pasta? HIGHLY recommend blending the sauce with like a stick blender. So good like that.

[katievenus]

listen. listen to me: one pot mac n cheese. mac n cheese noodles of your choice. cook in salted water, do the similar method where you barely cover it and keep going until almost but not quite al dente. add freshly shredded cheese (I like cheddar+colby jack) and heavy cream, a tiny dab of mustard, a tiny bit of xantham gum if you want it really ooey gooey (best if added in a carrier oil, like 1 tsp of olive oil+1/8 tsp xantham. this adds a dish though). stir until the cheese is all melted. if too liquidy add more cheese, if too stringy add more cream/milk/water. if needed, add more salt (if pasta water is properly salted, prob not needed). not only is it one pot, this is literally the smoothest mac n cheese sauce i have ever had. enjoy my beloveds

I sometimes make a "pesto" with frozen peas (or fresh when they're in season) with mint and parm and it is so good and very fresh.

[aminasuleiman]

I’m African and it was such a shock to me to discover people cooked their pasta separately. I grew up waring and making one pot pastas. Will give these a try they look so delicious 😋

[iinamatilda]

Loved this video!

The baked feta pasta has been in regular rotation for me since 2020, i love to add spinach or kale or broccoli to wilt/cook with the pasta to add some greens to the dish. Also grilled chicken with it is great, to add some protein :D

[amandagoudie]

For the feta pasta we use a block of cream cheese and like to add sausage, little pepperoni, olives, mushrooms or whatever suits us. It's my daughters favorite one pot pasta.
