- 1 pound dry pasta I used fettuccine noodles
- Food coloring red, yellow, blue, green
Bring pot of water to a boil, add past and cook pasta according to package directions. Drain pasta in a colander and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking.
You will need 1 ziploc bag for each color you plan to make. I used 6 colors.
Place 3 tablespoons of water in the bottom of one ziploc bag and add food coloring (see chart below) to the water.
Scoop equal amounts of noodles into the bag, squish noodles around until completely covered.
Allow noodles to sit in bags for 5 minutes, or longer.
Repeat steps 4-6 for each additional color.
After noodles have soaked in the color, rinse each color separately in a colander under cold water.
