I can assure you, there is no such thing called "enough pasta".
Just don't sauce the extra portion, and then eat it cold at 3am like a goblin. 😆
When making long noodles. Make a circle with your thumb and index. Bring your index all the way to the base of your thumb. Somewhere in there is the amount you will eat (of dry noodles that fit). Find it, and never make the wrong amount again.
I always use my kitchen scale and make 80 grams portions of pasta
125g per person is where I sit. Also gives for a chance of a bit of fridge leftovers.
Same. After a while you also get the hang of it a d don't need a scale anymore
I can relate! I've learned to measure my pasta by weight. I know how much my household cares to eat, and I cook that amount or a bit more for leftovers.
