The strange trend of cooking pasta without boiling has confused foodies
Cooking involves many different processes and techniques in it. Mining, slicing, sautéing, mixing, and boiling are some of the commonly used cooking methods. Especially boiling is one of the most basic and simple steps in cooking. Whether we boil potatoes or rice, pasta or corn – there are many different ingredients that need to be cooked by boiling in hot water. To make the pasta cooking process easier, bloggers came up with a new trend – eliminating the boiling process altogether. Believe it or not, the video is live showing pasta being cooked in milk or cream. Watch:

The post was originally shared by Twitter user @whitest_injera, where it went viral and received over 35k likes. “The trend where people make pasta without boiling it and just throw it in the oven with milk and cheese will be the end of us,” he wrote in his post. In the comments, many people shared videos of noodles being cooked by adding milk or cream directly. Although this uncanny technique saves cooking time, it’s still unclear if the noodles are cooked properly.
Many home cooks and chefs have considered this new no-cook pasta trend. They shared their reactions in the comments section of the viral tweet. “I really don’t know why this is a trend,” wrote one user while another said, “These people won’t succeed in life, boiling water isn’t that hard!” Another user also said: “Literally, pasta is the easiest thing to cook, and they can’t even do that?” “That should be considered a crime,” another added.
