Spaghetti Spoons Have A Genius Second Use That You’d Never Expect

spaghetti spoons

Spaghetti spoons are one of the most crucial tools you can find in your kitchen. Used to extract and drain off noodles with ease, it makes cooking dinner and fishing out your pasta extremely easy. However, there appears to have been a hidden, second use for spaghetti spoons that we didn’t expect.

A hack originally from food and crafts hack page My Smoko Break revealed that you can actually use the pasta extractor to determine how much pasta should be cooked in the first place. That single hole in the middle can aliquot out perfect portions of noodles per person, making figuring out exactly how much pasta you should cook a breeze.

Since the hack was originally posted, several people have stepped forward with their thoughts on if the hack actually works or not.

In case you’re wondering how much pasta exactly constitutes a portion, check out the below clip from a SORTEDfood video that shows you exactly how much is appropriate for one meal. Of course, eating the whole package all at once is totally fine as well, especially if you’re carbo-loading.
