The neverending discussion about pasta, olive oil and just putting enough water... 10g salt, 100g pasta, at least 1L water e basta così ! No oil or you ruin the pasta/sauce synergy. 😃 (lemmings.world)

I have never once oiled my pasta water. I have also never once had my pasta stick. Just add enough water, boil, salt, pasta. Cook til it's done, I literally never stir the pasta. Test for texture every so often. Drain, save some water for marrying with the sauce better.

Edit cool -> cook ty autocorrect.
