Alice I
Assistant Cook
Hello everyone,
My name is Alice I and I am new to this forum. I found it by googleing cooking forums. This was the first one to pop up.
I am a 43 year old mother of 3. My children range in age from 2 yrs to 10 yrs. old. I have just been diagnosed with Barrettes Esophagus and have had to change my lifestyle including the way I cook and eat.
My most immediate question is about whole wheat pasta vs. regular pasta. I am learning several new cooking techniques and I just saw a Rachel Ray episode where she cooked spaghetti the same way you would cook risotto. The dish comes out creamy because the starch in the pasta has a chance to comes out and it isn't washed away as would happen with boiling it. My question is - will this same thing work if using whole wheat spaghetti?
I have not even had a chance to set up my profile. Life is busy and I just joined a few minutes ago. I will get to it at some point here and I look forward to meeting and getting to know the folks who are members here.
Thanks
Alice I
