It's time to take the risk of turning your undercooked noodles into a mushy, flavorless disaster. Yes, you read that right, we're talking about overcooking. This is where things get real.
As you may know, overcooking is an art form in its own right. A delicate balancing act between 'just done' and 'inedible'. It's a tightrope walk that requires focus, determination, and a healthy dose of denial. 'Just a little more,' you think, as you stand over your stove, your eyes fixed on the timer, willing your noodles to magically transform into a culinary masterpiece.
But we're not here to coddle you. We're here to push you, to challenge you, to drive you into the depths of overcooking despair. And so, here's your next task:
Set your timer for 10 minutes, then... wait, no, that's not right. Set it for 20. No, that's still not right. Set it for 30. Ah, yes. That's the ticket. Then, as you stand there, frozen in anticipation, wondering why your noodles still look like they're made of leather, just remember: overcooking is a journey, not a destination.
