hi! how to cook pasta? cooking pasta depends on what kind of pasta you will be cooking. most spaghetti you cook it for like 8 minutes or you can check on the package what is the indicated time of cooking.
so, first you have to boil water.boil, as in bubbles are there. put salt , it depends on how much pasta you will be cooking. if the package says 8 minutes. cook it for like 7 minutes. of course by the time you have drained the water from the pot the heat of the water still cooks the pasta. then that makes your pasta al dente. if you still want to check if its al dente. when you bite your pasta there is a white part in the middle and that is fine. once done draining the water from pasta , drizzle it with olive oil so that it won't stick together. gud day!

hi emine08, I could pasta in 3 easy steps. First,I let the water boil. Second, I add 1tsp salt (for 1kl) and 2 tbsp of cooking oil. After a few minutes, proceed to third step which is adding the paste into the boiled water, stir the pasta and wait for 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and mix the sauce. That's all.
