Is it ok to use bouillon while cooking potatoes or pasta - or is it a waste of bouillon?

I would say that using boullion for cooking pasta IS a waste since you're going to put sauce on the pasta anyway. However, using boullion for cooking potatoes (for mashing) makes sense. The boullion will flavor the potatoes while reducing the need for butter or margarine and possibly milk (you can use the boullion flavored water instead). Boullion is also useful in cooking rice. It gives the rice a nice flavor as opposed to water.

Why should cooking oil be added to cooking water when cooking pasta?
No, oil does not keep the pasta from sticking together. The oil has a much higher viscosity and will just float on top. However, the oil can serve a purpose in cooking pasta. If the pot of pasta is left on high heat, the oil will prevent the pasta from foaming and then eventually boiling over. When pastas are cooked, the starches are released into the water and begin to stick together. The oil allows the starchy particles to slide past each other instead of sticking together. An alternative is to periodically stir the pasta as it is cooking to keep it from clumping together.

Can you put conchiglie in a pasta bake?
I know that Italians are VERY particular about what type of pasta shape they use depending on the sauce or dish. For baked pasta dishes you can use the large Conchilglie if you plan to stuff the pasta and bake it. Manicotti is also great for stuffing along with several other large tubular pasta shapes. If you plan to make a baked pasta dish without stuffing the pasta, a medium sized tubular pasta is always best. Such as the case with Baked Ziti but you can use Penne or Rigatoni for example. There are even Southern Italian baked pasta dishes that use spaghetti. Nothing goes to waste in Italian food and

Is Waste Vegetable Oil Considered Biomass?
Not really. Biomass refers to the waste products of plants which are burned to produce electricity. These include, bagasse, wood, brush, chaff or any other farm or agricultural production waste products. Vegetable, or cooking oil, waste is not an agricultural waste product. It is however a food waste, like garbage, which can be converted into biodiesel and glycerine, leaving less waste product to be disposed.
