ABSTRACT:
A pasta testing device consisting of a pair of flat elongate transparent plates whose sides stand normal to the flat surfaces and have edges sufficiently clean and sharp to impinge or bite into the softened hydrated surface portion of a strand of pasta to deter the longitudinal movement thereof. At least one of the plates may be colored. The opposite sides of the plates are notched in transversely registering pairs, the notches being preferably of generally rectangular form and disposed vertically relative to the flat surface of the plate and of a size sufficient to accommodate a single strand of pasta. The vertical sides of the plates and the notches have clean sharp edges where they meet the flat surface of the plates. Slide resistance of the notches is further increased when the inner vertical side is provided with an inwardly facing, inverted V-shaped ridge. A single notch near the outer end of a plate is provided for use in extracting a strand of spaghetti from a hot cooking utensil.
