I want to make farfel for the Purim seudah.

What's the secret for getting it just right--not too lumpy or mushy?

I follow the instructions on the package but I can't seem to get it right. Am I cooking too little/too long? Using too much/too little water?

Use canola oil. I heat the oil and brown the farfelle with real garlic and salt and then add 2.5 cups water. After the farfelle cools, I gently break it up and add more oil. I noticed the cooked farfelle for sale is more oily. The farfelle stays nicely for Shabbos adding the oil after.

I use the leftovers gravy from cooked chicken or even meat. It adds great taste.

I'm going to be cooking a lot more than one 8.8 oz package. I'll need to do some math to figure out the conversions...
