To prepare this spaghetti, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the spaghetti and stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook according to package directions until al dente, which means it should be tender but still have a slight bite. Drain the pasta thoroughly in a colander. It is then ready to be combined with your favorite sauce, seasonings, or other ingredients. Avoid rinsing the pasta after draining, as this can remove the starch that helps sauces adhere.

The spaghetti shape itself is long and thin, which differs from shorter pasta shapes like penne or rotini, affecting how it holds sauce and its mouthfeel.
