i really dont think that cooked pasta is good for a horse because horses should only eat horse food, fruit and vegetable. and if you ask if they can eat cake too i would say no. Pasta is made from refined grains and usually from wheat. Wheat is a very energy rich grain and the refining removes the fibre that is essential in horses' (and humans') diet. Therefore pasta is very concentrated energy without the roughage a horse needs so feeding pasta to a horse could cause an upset in the horse's digestive system. go to Google.ca and type in Mr.Hands video
Dry pasta
A dry to cooked pasta calculator helps you figure out the amount of dry pasta needed to make a specific quantity of cooked pasta for your recipe. Simply enter the desired cooked pasta amount and the calculator will tell you how much dry pasta to use.
To dye dry pasta, you can mix food coloring with rubbing alcohol in a plastic bag, add the pasta, shake it well, then let it dry on a paper towel.
The amount of pasta that equals a gallon can vary depending on the type of pasta and whether it's dry or cooked. Generally, 1 gallon of dry pasta weighs about 4 to 5 pounds, which translates to approximately 16 to 20 cups of dry pasta, depending on the shape. When cooked, pasta expands significantly, so a gallon of cooked pasta would require much less dry pasta to achieve the same volume.
One pound of dry pasta equals 2.5 pounds of cooked pasta.
To effectively dry homemade pasta for long term storage, hang the pasta strands on a drying rack or lay them out in a single layer on a clean surface. Allow the pasta to dry completely for at least 12 hours in a well-ventilated area. Once dry, store the pasta in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to several months.
