Pasta Ingredients

Method

Cooking Pasta

  1. 1

    Boil Water

    In a large pot, bring water to a rolling boil. Add 1 tablespoon of salt to the boiling water.

  2. 2

    Cook Pasta

    Add the rigatoni pasta to the boiling water. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and cook according to package instructions or until al dente, usually around 10-12 minutes.

  3. 3

    Drain Pasta

    Once cooked, reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the rigatoni in a colander. Do not rinse the pasta, as this will wash away the starch that helps the sauce adhere.

  4. 4

    Toss with Olive Oil

    In the same pot, drizzle the olive oil over the drained rigatoni. Toss well to coat the pasta, adding reserved pasta water a little at a time if it seems dry.
