I wonder wtf you guys do to your pasta, it's like the easiest thing to cook... Boil water, add salt, wait for the time written on the box (or just look at it, you'll see when it's done).
I don't think they boil the water. Must be that. No other way I can think why it would stick.
Also, if the pan isn't large enough the pasta will stick I think. I say I think because despite having cooked pasta hundreds of times I've never had this happen lol
*visible confusion*
After cooking the pasta just short of done, many toss them in the sauce pan and let them finish cooking in the sauce for a more even pasta-to-sauce-distribution. Saves you the hassle of portioning your sauce.
Hmm I call the large "pans" that you boil water and make sauces in pans, but I assume you don't in your country- presumably the USA? I'm not even sure what you would call them instead tbh
