125 grams of dried pasta per person, as a main course usually works fine for me.

This is hilarious to me. We make 400g for 2 (normal sized) people.

We make 500g for 2 normal sized (lean) people and it's nearly not enough

[-] Creat@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 7 months ago

Yea we also used to do 500g, but over the years it has just (naturally?) gone down a bit.

Pasta 80g/person (women may prefer 70g), sauce about 100g/person

Women may prefer 🤣 Jesus Christ

? That's just how it is, some people eat more, some eat less, women on average eat less.

I use 160g spaghetti with an entire 14oz jar of sauce, personally.

I assume that's basically plain pasta? Or are we talking American portions?

Because in most of the world it's 70-90g. If you're going with heavy dishes it's sometimes down into 50-60g.

Not American portions, but for a dish that is centered around pasta. Usually with a light tomatoe sauce, aglio e olio or something like that. And I like to have a second helping, so that's included.

If you're going for a casserolle or something else with lots of Cheese, a thick and creamy sauce, or relevant amounts of meat and/or vegetables to go with it, you'll need less than that.

I like to eat a small bowl with sauce, then make a truly deranged second small bowl – butter, olive oil, that trash-ass Parmesan or whatever blend is kicking around in the fridge, adobo, black pepper, chili flakes
