Pasta Cooker/Microwave

[ Edited ]

OK, I have been around too long.  I just tuned into ITKWD...saw K99266 ..... I saw this same or similar item on years ago...even bought one....recycle a product time.  Does anyone else remember this?  I no longer have mine...this one is slightly different but same idea.

Still have it and I still use it, have not boiled a pan of water for pasta since I got it.

I have a set of two microwave pasta cookers called Fasta Pasta. I bought it from QVC many years ago and it's the only way I make pasta ever since. It's easily one of my favorite Q purchases ever!

I have k50083 and like it so much that I sent one to my sibling.

No more cooking pasta on the stovetop

Is this the product you're speaking of?

I have the Fasta Pasta too. I don't always remember to use it, but it saves a lot of water and you don't have to haul a heavy pan of water over to the sink to drain your pasta.

I have something similar that I use to steam vegetables...BUT, I have to stand at the stove and WATCH my pasta cook...it's gotta be just perfect!

@Lovestheshores .... K50083...similar to my old one.  I do remember it was handy and can't remember why I got rid of it.

I have the fasta pasta microwave cooker too and use it anytime I need pasta, which is many times a week. works great----I have tweaked how I use it tho----nothing major just little things---
