Q: CONTEXT: Personally I'd suggest blanching your pasta. By blanching:I mean get a big pan of heavily salted water on a rolling boil. Drop your pasta into the water, give it a stir.After 1 min or when the water has come back to boil drain the pasta off.At this point your pasta will still be el' dante but not raw which is what I suspect the directions are suggesting when they say "2 min less than instructed" then just use it at the mixing with sour cream step.If you were to just use the pasta freshly made it will likely not have the texture desired. Boiling it will help moisten it up and start to cook the flour.  <sep>  Q: Using homemade pasta instead of dried in a bake###'d like to use fresh homemade pasta tonight in place of bagged egg noodles. ###My question is, should I prep the noodles in boiling water in anyway, or should I skip that step and add the freshly made noodles where the recipe calls for it? A: Personally I'd suggest blanching your pasta  Q: Do you recommend adding the freshly made noodles where the recipe calls for it? A: If you were to just use the pasta freshly made it will likely not have the texture desired. Boiling it will help moisten it up and start to cook the flour  Q: Thats helpful. Anything else i need to keep in mind while using homemade pasta? A: your pasta will still be el' dante but not raw 

A: What pasta do you recommend? Bagged or homemade?

Q: CONTEXT: If "sharp" means too much alcohol left, bring it back to a simmer and cook off more of it, then adjust with more cream if needed.If "sharp" means too acidic, your options are:(1) add more cream and other ingredients to dilute the acid(2) try to mask the acid with a bit of sugar(3) I guess you could try to neutralize the acid with a very small amount of something basic, like baking soda. But that seems like a bad idea, it will probably taste terrible.  <sep>  Q: What is the Way to fix sharp tasting sauce? A: If "sharp" means too much alcohol left, bring it back to a simmer and cook off more of it, then adjust with more cream if needed  Q: How do i keep it from getting sharp in the first place? A: add more cream and other ingredients to dilute the acid 

A: Do you have to boil every sauce before using it

Q: CONTEXT: My own sugar cookie recipe is quite dry as well. It cracks along the edges when pressed or rolled and is easily "broken".I've never experienced a problem with the dough being so dry it doesn't take to cookie cutters, but if your dough is literally falling apart you may want to just spritz (or in the absence of a kitchen water spray bottle, sprinkle with your finger tips) cold water on it. (Like adding water to pie dough) Give it one sprinkle/spritz and kneed it in. Repeat until it just stops breaking. Don't go overboard and make it gooey.I'd use water over oil or milk because it's the least likely to change the structure of your cookie in the baking process. Such minuscule amounts of water shouldn't yield a detectable change in the end product.If this is a consistent problem with the recipe, in the future I'd decrease the flour by a tablespoon or two and see if that helps.  <sep>  Q: How can I fix my dry crumbly cookie dough? A: ou may want to just spritz (or in the absence of a kitchen water spray bottle, sprinkle with your finger tips) cold water on it  Q: What do I do when it's dry and cracking while I'm kneading it? A: Repeat until it just stops breaking 

A:
Could it be doing this because I chilled the dough for too long?
