Rewarming pasta

A friend gave me some leftover homemade noodles (already cooked). What's your favorite method of rewarming?

Ideally, in a warm oven.

Usually, in the microwave.

Microwave.

How'd you know what I'm having for lunch?

Microwave, and though you can cover them to preserve the original just-cooked texture, I advocate leaving them uncovered so the top noodles get crispy.

Although I'm actually eating mine cold.

Larry, if they are left overs from the fridge I usually bring a pot of water to a boil, turn the fire off, and then drop the pasta in the water for maybe 2 minutes. Almost no cooking done in that short time and the pasta gets heated through.

Zap it.

Take water from my hot tap (I've got my set to boiling) and drop them in for about 3 minutes.

I reheat all my pasta dishes in the microwave. If the dish has seafood I am very careful and usually eat it on the cool side. Love it that way.

Looks like nuking wins--the way I usually do it. But for yukes last night, I placed a couple of servings of the pasta in a ziploc and placed it in a pot of simmering water while I heated the sauce. Worked reasonably well. Thanks, one and all.

When I take pasta to work I use the microwave. At home I use the saute pan with the sauce, as if I were finishing it with the sauce from the first cooking.

I like to scald my left over noodles for a short period of time - enough to get them hot again but not enough to cook them more.
