Cook this pasta with a lot of slightly salty water for a few minutes (between 4 and 6 minutes). Yet, you can also cook with sauce, in a risotto style, with a longer cooking time (around 20 minutes). Thus, they will fully absorb all the flavours. You can also cook the Kritharaki in the oven, to get caramelized pasta.
