Just stir in when you first put it in, and every couple of minutes. I always stir it right before I drain it too. Whatever you do, don't add oil to your water...it will prevent your pasta sauce from clinging to your pasta.

I put a bit of oil in boiling water and keep stirring until done. I have never had a problem with the sauce not sticking to the pasta when I use oil.

in case you prepare dinner pasta properly, it won't stick. Use a huge pot with a variety of of water. Wait till the water is composed of an entire boil beforehand including the salt. permit the water come lower back to an entire boil and upload the pasta. Stir as we communicate, turn down the warmth somewhat (the water could desire to nevertheless be boiling), and stir periodically till the pasta is cooked. do no longer overcook -- overcooked pasta is extra probable to adhere (to no longer point out being thoroughly unappetizing). the quantity of cooking time relies upon on the scale and style of pasta and in spite of if it somewhat is clean or dry. in spite of you do, do no longer use the "throw it on the wall and notice if it sticks" approach to objective doneness -- via then, the pasta is far overcooked. there is no could desire to placed oil interior the water in case you're employing adequate water and salt, and in case you stir from time to time. in actuality, Italian chefs do no longer use oil interior the water because of the fact it prevents the pasta sauce from sticking to the pasta. listed here are the quantities which you desire for cooking a pound (sixteen oz.) of pasta: a minimum of a million gallon of water a minimum of four tablespoons of salt (preferrably a coarse salt like kosher salt) do no longer skimp on water and salt. in case you have too little water, the pasta will prepare dinner erratically and stick at the same time and to the pan. do no longer complication approximately employing too plenty salt. It could desire to be in share to the quantity of water, and purely a small volume is absorbed via the pasta. in case you have too little salt, the salt interior the pasta would be leached out, leaving the pasta bland and insipid. (Italians say which you would be able to no longer upload salt to pasta AFTER it somewhat is been cooked.)

Stir it regularly, especially right after you put the pasta into the water.
The oil is more to keep the pasta from stick together after you pour it out.

Use lots of water
Bring water to a boil before putting in pasta
Add lots of salt to water.
Gently stir pasta to break up clumps.
That should do it.
It does for me.
Oh yes, please don't over cook pasta, please!
