1 of 10
which of the following correctly describes pasta which is al dente?
firm to the bite
soft to the bite
hard to the bite
cold to the bite

Explanation:

"Al dente" is an Italian term used in cooking, especially for pasta. It means that the pasta is cooked just right so that it has a firm texture when bitten, not too soft (over - cooked) or too hard (under - cooked). Cold to the bite is not related to the al dente concept which is about the cooking texture, not the temperature.

Answer:

Firm to the bite
