Step 4: Cook the Banza Pasta

Step 34

About 20–30 minutes before serving, cook the Banza pasta on the stovetop.

Step 35

Cook it 1–2 minutes less than the package directions so it stays al dente.

Step 36

Drain and set aside.

Step 37

Tip: I recommend keeping the pasta separate and adding it to each bowl. Banza absorbs broth as it sits, so this keeps the leftovers from getting too thick.
