Do you like spaghetti better freshly cooked, or left over for a few days?

[Shawna]

So, my mom and I were having a conversation about spaghetti (we are having it for dinner tonight). I told her that I like it (and all foods really) MUCH better freshly cooked (which is the way we are having it tonight). She tends to like it better when we let it sit in the fridge for a couple days then heat it back up on the stove (we have leftover spaghetti just a few days after we actually cook it). She told me that most people are like her; they like spaghetti after it's been cooked for a few days. So, something came to mind. I told her that I was going to make a poll to see what preference wins.

Freshly cooked, by far. I don't like anything leftover.

It depends if the Great Papyrus cooked it or not. But, nah. Freshly cooked is the way to go.

I'd eat spaghetti either way but I usually have it freshly cooked!

 

[Hermione Granger]

fresh is best

I like it left over better, which is not the same as "left out," which could get you sick.

leftover pasta is not a thing.

It gets really congealed and the noodles get either rubbery or soggy if left too long, neither of which is appetizing in any manner, so I mean fresh made spaghetti is the kind I wont forgetti.

 

[Hopeless Opus]

Freshly cooked always is best, but it does get good when it sits for a few days.

you guys gotta be talking the sauce maybe gets better. i dont see how the plain pasta can possibly get better after sitting in the fridge for any period of time.

a homemade sauce, i could see; the extra time allows the ingredients to marry better and the flavor intensifies. similar to what happens with homemade chili, gumbo, gulasch, and other savory stews.

Freshly cooked

Whenever food sits in the refridgerator it never tastes right to me.

Exactly this, when I used to eat meat leaving the sauce with the meat in the fridge for a few days or so and then heating it and putting over NEW noodles or rice or something was so good, especially when the tomato sauce would break the meat down further and it would just be soooo yummy and flavorful. I have not in my lifetime found a good way to reheat noodles without them becoming terrible in every way.

You might need some baking soda in your fridge to pick up the odors running around in there, we used to have that problem but the baking soda really traps them so your food wont pick up the flavors of the other things in there, good quality sealing Tupperware prevents this too.
