Cooking Pasta Ahead of time:

Cook your pasta aldante (until there is a slight bite to it).

Strain the pasta and run cold water through it until it is cooled.  Strain well.

Put the cold pasta in a plastic bag and add 2 Tbs of olive oil.  Seal the bag and squish to coat the pasta with the oil.  Refrigerate.

 

Heating Cooked Pasta:

Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil.

Just before serving drop the cooked pasta into the boiling water and immediately pour the pasta into a strainer.  Serve with sauce.
