Ingredients state "Important: Do not rinse?"?!


Question: Ingredients state "Important: Do not rinse!?"!?
Why is it important not to rinse Kraft Macaroni and Cheese noodles after draining them and before adding the other ingredients!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
The starch that coats the cooked macaroni helps thicken the sauce!. You should only rinse pasta if you are going to use it cold like in a pasta salad!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You're never supposed to rinse any type of pasta because it will stick together! :) Just mix it up and strain it!. You need that little bit of hot water stuck to it!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Because the bogus cheese powder needs the starch from the mac noodles to allow it to stick to them!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

the starch helps the sauce bind to the pastaWww@FoodAQ@Com
