Olive oil in. That stops the pasta from sticking togther.

...and other bullshit you hear from nyc denizens.

>>22005018
What 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
>>
>>22005018
waste 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

A 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
>>
>>22005220
Doesn't it hurt?

>>22005209
you're legitimately retarded and make wild claims that are not based in reality because you haven't seen the sun in years.

Okay, you're genuinely retarded then.

Can't deny you're a retard but my god we have to call you one with correct english.

>>22005366
Fuck off, you Reddit spacing, ESL retard.
>>
>>22005134
This 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

Nope. Lots of salt but no oil. Ramsay should know better.

I add a bit of oil to stop the water from boiling over because oil breaks the water's surface tension

waste of oil

> not throwing a spaghetti at the wall to check doneness

You don't need oil.
You don't need salt.
You boiling pasta water only needs one thing.

>>22005485
You'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

Occasional stirring stops it from sticking in the pot

The 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.
>>
>>22005432
Also 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.
