Spaghetti in chicken broth






Snack. 

Using the broadest pan that I own, a very small amount of angel hair pasta is cooked directly in a shallow layer of chicken broth. So the angel hair pasta soaks up flavorful chicken broth as it cooks instead of plain water. It is infused. Permeated. 

Then the pasta is removed and the remaining chicken broth is boiled down to a medium thick sauce. This happens in a few minutes through evaporation because the pan is so broad, and now the liquid contains scant starch sloughed from the pasta. 

The two are united, condensed broth and cooked angel hair pasta, and plated.

But before that ↑ happens, the overly broad pan is used to singe grated onion in chicken fat along with tomato paste squeezed from a tube, and Mexican oregano. This is mentioned last because I wanted to say the main thing first.
