Ok I'm still confused on how to measure speghetti quick and easy. I do understand that its 2oz dry and that is about a cup cooked but really you can't get a perfect cup of noodles they don't fit in a cup. So is there a cooked weight to use?

    I just weigh the dry spaghetti to the desired serving I need then just eyeball it.

    I dry weigh the (uncooked) spaghetti (56g) all the time,every time. That takes the guess work out of it. And if there's an error in guessing, -its' probably underestimating the portion size.

    I eat spaghetti all the time and when it's cooked it fits pretty well in a measuring cup :)
