Answer to Question 1

Cereals are not stirred during cooking because stirring can cause the cereals to become gummy because the starch granules rupture prematurely.

Answer to Question 2

Pasta is made from semolina, which comes from durum wheat. Durum wheat is high in protein, which contributes to pasta's elasticity and structure maintenance during cooking.
