Chewy (pasta) (2,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

al dente

(Other definitions for al dente that I've seen before include "not so easy on the teeth" , "Somehow cooked" , "(Of pasta) still firm when bitten" , "Tel Edna (anag.); firm to bite" , "Cooked so as to be firm when eaten" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
