Directions:

Use large pot to boil pasta.
Follow the instruction on the package.
Take tap water and bring the water to boil.
Add about 1 teaspoon of salt per quart (4 cups) of water.
Never add oil to your water as it makes the pasta slippery, preventing the sauce from adhering properly.
When the water is boiling rapidly, add the pasta and stir to prevent sticking.
It should be cooked, yet firm as it will continue to cook a little after being removed from the heat.
Don’t rinse the pasta, unless to be used in a salad, as the starch also helps the sauce adhere.
Keep one cup of pasta water aside. It could be added to the moisten the paste if it seems to be little dry once the sauce has been added.
After draining, cook the pasta over medium heat with about one half of the sauce. This helps the sauce bond with the pasta.
