Make sure you have sufficient water for boiling. Pasta must have room to move. Add a pinch of salt, and a few drops of olive oil. Let the water come to a rolling boil.

Stir to combine and it is ready to eat. If meat is added, please make sure the meat is cooked before it is added into the pasta sauce.
