I've never had much luck rehydrating my own home dehydrated pasta. That and the fact that I am a good enough cook to be picky about the quality of the food I eat keeps me (mostly grin) actually cooking on the trail. The hard part is satisfying my kids while not carrying the kitchen sink (and the refrigerator, and cutting board, and ...)

If I wouldn't eat it at home, why would I want to eat it on the trail?
