Why is day old spaghetti so good?

The reason is simple: the pasta absorbs a lot of the moisture and of the sauce. When you re-heat it, it retains the flavor without being as "wet" as the day before. I personally really like it, but for me it's like another dish, because it really tastes different from the original lasagna.

Can you over cook spaghetti sauce?

Be careful not to overcook. Since some tomato sauces are ruined by overcooking, always reheat to hot, but take care not to continue cooking the sauce. If you are using fresh tomatoes in your recipe, taste before buying.

Is leftover spaghetti nutritious?

When pasta is cooled down, your body digests it differently, causing fewer calories to be absorbed and a smaller blood glucose peak. And reheating it is even better - it reduces the rise in blood glucose levels by a whopping 50 percent.

Why is reheated pasta better for you?

So, according to scientist Dr Denise Robertson, from the University of Surrey, if you cook and cool pasta down then your body will treat it much more like fibre, creating a smaller glucose peak and helping feed the good bacteria that reside down in your gut.

Can you eat refrigerated cooked potato?
