To cook this pasta, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the angel hair pasta to the boiling water. Stir gently to prevent sticking. Cook for a very short time, typically 2 to 4 minutes, until al dente. Drain the pasta well. It is best served immediately with your favorite sauce or ingredients. Overcooking can make it mushy due to its thinness.
