  1. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once water is boiling, stir in spaghetti and return to a boil. Cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, but still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink, reserving 2 tablespoons of cooking water.
