Chef's Notes
Treat your orzo like royalty; do not overcook it or it will turn into mush. Always dress the salad just before serving to keep the vegetables crisp and vibrant.
Pro Tip
If raw red onions are too sharp for your delicate palate, soak the sliced wedges in ice-cold water for 10 minutes before tossing them into the bowl to tame their fiery bite.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Do not commit the cardinal sin of failing to rinse your hot orzo with freezing water, or you will end up with a tragic, gluey starch-brick masquerading as a refreshing Mediterranean salad.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I asked the chef why we are serving pasta shaped like rice; he told me it's because the cook was too indecisive to choose a carbohydrate.
The Culinary Science
Rinsing cooked pasta with cold water instantly washes away excess surface starch, preventing the individual grains of orzo from sticking together into a giant clump.
