If I put pasta in an airtight container to freeze it, how long will it last?
I am sure she means the pasta for herself and SO, not the baby.
You can cook pasta and cover it with salted water to keep in the fridg for a few days and just reheat in boiling water. Just don't over cook the pasta.
I'm with the "not worth freezing" lobby on this, too. Freezing pasta in a bake with a sauce or a lasagne or something like that works and is worth while but I don't think the OP would be saving herself anything by freezing "undressed" pasta.I used to bring along boiled, oiled pasta on our camping outings. Keeping it cold it lasted at least a week. Other than that, I agree, pasta will cook almost as quickly as heating the pasta. If you really want to freeze it, do a test and freeze a little to see how you system will work in your house. But I think fooling around trying to defrost it won't be worth it.
