10. apparently Gordon Ramsay's wrong according to the you lol
11. this is not how you do pasta . first of all after all that you are saucing the pasta wrong too . you put the sauce in the bowl or pan first ,then add the pasta , repeat untill you have all the pasta in the bowl . you start with pasta at the bottom and mix and build form there.
12. FAR too much salt!!! High salt is very dangerous. It causes high blood pressure, stroke, heart disease, heart failure and a host of other serious medical problems. You don't need to add ANY salt to pasta: just herbs, spices, peppers, tomatoes etc, etc
13. Finally, im italian and I can't believe that this woman cooks pasta like us, great job
