Iena Kashyap's Kitchen : Recipes From International Cuisines: Italian Recipes

Italian There is nothing like using fresh home-made pasta. Fresh pasta takes much lesser time to cook. While fresh ravioli, tortelloni, lasagne sheets should be used; ready-made dried macaroni, penne and spagetti are quite decent to use.
Here are a few tips for Italian cooking :

Pasta should be cooked in plenty of boiling salted water, according to the packet instructions. It must be a la dente and not over cooked.
Do not compromise on the quality of wine that you use for cooking. Any wine that you can drink should be used for cooking. Use a dry wine for cooking and not a sweet wine.
Always buy the best quality of fresh parmesan cheese available.
Grate cheese just before using.
