Hey there! Want to make amazing pasta? Here's the easiest way to do it:

1. Fill a big pot with water - You need lots of water so your pasta doesn't stick together.
2. Add salt - Use about 1-2 tablespoons of salt per pound of pasta. This makes it taste way better!
3. Bring water to a full boil - Wait until you see lots of big bubbles.
4. Add your pasta - Put it in and stir it a few times so it doesn't stick.
5. Set a timer - Check the box for how long to cook it (usually 8-12 minutes).
6. Test before draining - Try a piece! It should be 'al dente' (slightly firm when you bite it).
7. Save some pasta water - Scoop out a cup before draining. It's great for making sauce stick to your pasta!
8. Drain and serve - Don't rinse it unless you're making a cold pasta salad.

Pro tip: Never add oil to your pasta water - it makes the sauce slide right off!
