To Cook Pasta

Add 2 teaspoons salt and 1 tablespoon oil (optional) to 6 quarts boiling water. Gradually add pasta and continue to cook at a boil until pasta is “al dente” or slightly firm to the bite. Pasta floats to the top of the water while cooking, so stir occasionally to keep it cooking evenly. Drain in a colander.
