Tips

  • Use a narrower saucepan for cooking the pasta.
  • Barely cover the pasta with water to prevent it from evaporating too soon.
  • When adding evaporated milk, do not bring it to a full boil; a small simmer for a moment is enough.
  • You can take the noodles off the heat after adding the milk, and they will continue to soften.
  • Do not use pre-shredded cheese for the best results.
