Olive oil in. That stops the pasta from sticking togther.
>>22005018...and other bullshit you hear from nyc denizens.
>>22005018What actually stops it is rinsing it in the colander 2 minutes before it's fully cooked then finishing the cooking process in the sauce.I learned that in Egypt of all things but apparently it's also how the nips do it.You can add olive oil after the pasta has cooled to flavor it but in the cooking water it does almost nothing.
I just stir in a little butter afterwards unsticks real nice
>>22005018waste of good olive oil. oil is less dense than water so it just sits on top never interacting with the pasta that are left wondering what the fuck is wrong with you for putting an oil slick in their nice jacuzzi.
You don't need to add olive oil, just stir the pasta to separate it.
Then again, I did have an Italian mother
>>22005195A real chef uses their ingredients for cause and effect, not their own hands
I like to use my hands I'll just plunge my hands into the boiling hot water and pick up individual spaghetti strands and marshall them to different regions of the pot and that seems fine to me
>>22005220Doesn't it hurt?
>>22005209you're legitimately retarded and make wild claims that are not based in reality because you haven't seen the sun in years.
>>22005209>A real chef uses their ingredients for cause and effect.Please stop talking.
>>22005221Oh heavens yes
>>22005314imagine not using a spaghetti spoon, baka my head
>>22005266>legitimately*genuinelyESL retard.
>>22005348Back the fuck off
>>22005348Okay, you're genuinely retarded then.Can't deny you're a retard but my god we have to call you one with correct english.
>>22005366Fuck off, you Reddit spacing, ESL retard.
>>22005134This is wrong too. Why are you cooling your pasta down with tap water? Just take it directly out of the pot with tongs or pasta spoon and put it in the sauce. No need for a colonder
>>22005366ᴱˢᴸ ʳᵉᵗᵃʳᵈ
>>22005018Nope. Lots of salt but no oil. Ramsay should know better.
>>22005382I can't beat you over the head with a baseball bat, the police will have to decide what to punish you with.
>>22005386It's rawww!!!
>>22005018I add a bit of oil to stop the water from boiling over because oil breaks the water's surface tension
>>22005412waste of oil
> not throwing a spaghetti at the wall to check doneness
>>22005432It's olive oil, not diamond-plated unobtanium.
>>22005314kek
>>22005437i dont do that because i dont want to live a life wherein i keep on finding bits of pasta strewn abouti find that to be a life with less worries
>>22005018>>22005437You don't need oil.You don't need salt.You boiling pasta water only needs one thing.
>>22005509Why do I use Touch of Taste? Because it seasons better than salt alone
>>22005504A life without spaghetti spunked up the wall is not a life
>>22005485You're right but there are alterations in sure apply to you to reduce boil over. I personally rest the pot lid half off the pot which releases pressure
>>22005314you're a large individual
>>22005903For you
>>22005018Occasional stirring stops it from sticking in the potThe only time I'd use olive oil is if the drained pasta is sitting out for a while before I add it into a sauce. A little squirt and a toss keeps it from becoming a lump in your strainer.
>>22005432Also literally causes a bubbling fucking fountain of overflowing bullshit.Just use a big enough pot
No. Wrong. When I oil the the spaghetti it doesn't stick to the wall so I don't know if it's done or not.
