    My pot would have to be 3x its size to fit the amount of water a single package of pasta says I should use.
    1kg to 10l
    Do you have a bathtub in your stove?

      No, but 1kg of pasta? Are you feeding a battalion?

          Then investing in a large pot would make sense.

      Only the best musicians blame their pot.

      As others have already said, that is a lot of pasta. If you regularly cook volumes like that, it would really make sense to invest in a large pot as well. A cheap 10l pot will do just fine for boiling pasta, and it sounds like you would get plenty of use out of it.

      1 kg of dry pasta is enough for 10 people! Do you often cook for that many people? (Genuine question)

        Not in my experience, I usually count 200g per person

        That’d be two people, five meals each so a few days. That’s how I usually do it

        This is making me chuckle, because I just did this last night for a dinner party. It was a hell of a lot of pasta for 7. I kept it moving, even in my big stock pot. Only a few strands stuck to the bottom. We have leftovers.

        I usually cook a quarter of that for the two of us, sometimes half if I want to eat for a couple of days.

        2lbs/1 kg is a lot.
