It is amazing how lazy people can be. It doesn't take long to boil a bit of pasta. But if you are one of those add olive oil before refrigerating it. Then when you need it rinse it with hot water.

Answer 3

Add a little olive oil to the pasta when it is still hot, mix it through and then when it is cold it will not stick.

Answer 4

If you add a little sauce and mix well while the pasta is warm, it will not stick together. Refrigerate and heat when ready for the second meal.

Answer 5

If you cook it with some olive oil it doesn't stick, just add a bit to the pan whilst it's cooking, like you do with salt, or at least like I do with salt!

I normally rinse it with water then mix in some olive oil - it is never sticky the next day when I do this.

Answer 7
