Yeah don't rinse, the starch on them helps the sauce stick.
If your noodles stick together too much it is because your water isn't hot enough when you add the noodles.
Make sure the pot is big enough for the amount of noodles you want to cook.
Make sure the water is at a "rolling" boil, not just a simmer.
Don't start your timming until the water is back at a full boil, and don't turn the burner down until then.
Stay with your pot so it doesn't boil over.
If you time everything right your noodles should be done at the same time as your sauce. I start my water boiling before I put my meat on. But I don't add my noodles until about 5-10 minutes before my sauce is done. Because the meat sauce can "wait" better than the noodles do.

Rinse them again in hot water before serving. Try not rinsing them the sauce will stick better to the noodles. If it's to avoid noodles sticking you can dunk them into the same water you cooked them in just before serving. Then you'll have hot-no sticking noodles.

Leave about 1 tablespoon hot water in the bottom of the pot & set it back on the burner after you turn the heat off. Cover with a piece of foil until ready to serve, then drain the little bit of water out before serving.

to stay away from sticking at the same time as cooking: -Use lots of water. a reliable degree is two liters for each 500gm (a million p.c..) of pasta. -make confident the water is as warm as a probability at the same time as including the pasta. also, you go with the water to be warm back quickly after including the pasta, so protecting the pot for the first 2-3 minutes of cooking could do it. -Stir the pasta once in a while, isolating any that are stuck at the same time. -unlike what maximum folk imagine, oil contained in the cooking water is ineffective. it is going to drift on properly and could no longer mixture with the pasta in any respect; you're merely dropping oil. to stay away from sticking after cooking: -under no circumstances rinse your noodles! Rinsing noodles with warm or chilly water accomplishes one ingredient: it strips the noodles of its organic glutenous coating which actual facilitates noodles take up the butter you'll upload. -upload a delightful dallop of butter/margarine to the cooked, drained, and nonetheless warm pasta. Shake nicely to coat each strand. i'm a huge fan of pasta dishes, and this works for me giving suited pasta everytime!

When u are cooking your noodles, add a little bit of canola oil in the water. This prevents them from sticking all together after you drain them. Also leave just a tiny bit of water in the pot and turn your oven on WARM and put your pot of noodles in the oven! They will stay warm and soft until you are ready to eat!!!

If you have to rinse them rinse them in hot water not cold. After rinsing them cover the pot, plate or bowl with cling film (ryenolds wrap) utnil readu to use. This will help keep the heat.

first of all you are not supposed to rinse them off unless you are going to use them in pasta salad or something like that.
but my suggestion would be to leave a little water in the bottom of the pot that you cooked them in and when your done rinsing them keep them in the colander and put them over the pot with a lid. depending on how long they need to stay warm put the stove on a very very slow simmer

put them in hot water while you prepare the remaining things... leave them in a strainer but just raise them out of the hot water to drain seconds before adding the sauce
this is how my daughter makes it.. I taught her the basics on making spaghetti years ago and hers turned out better than mine so I don't make it anymore :-)
