Cook time: 20 minutes

Recipe yields: 4-6 servings

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup Extra virgin olive oil to emulsify with the pasta water reduction

• 1 tbsp kosher salt

• 8 oz dry whole wheat pasta (batch shown here uses rotini)

• 48 oz fresh, clean water (6:1 pasta ratio for scale)

Try it with one of our favorites:

Instructions

1. Add water to the pan and position it over medium-high heat

2. Add kosher salt

3. Add olive oil

4. Bring water to a low boil and add pasta

5. As water returns to a boil, reduce heat to medium and adjust as needed to maintain a low boil for 15-20 minutes (elevation and climate can affect the rate of evaporation)

6. In the final 3-5 minutes of cooking time (when water absorbs and evaporates below the level of the pasta), reduce heat to medium-low to reduce sticking and gently mix pasta top to bottom to coat with the emulsifying olive oil and pasta water

7. Remove from the heat when your olive oil reduction reaches a slightly creamy texture — not watery, but not dry enough to stick to the pan

(AMP⚡️ Olive Oil Reduction & Pasta is a carb foundation for pasta salads, sauces, primavera, and many more prep meals. Bear in mind: The vegetables, pasta sauce, and/or protein you add next will shape the flavor of your pasta-based meal.)
