You have to cook it in boiling water according to the time stated on the package. Make sure to begin with vigorously boiling water. Add a few drops of olive or vegetable oil to the water before you put in the pasta. To make it not stick, stir the cooking pasta a couple of times. Use a wooden or other large spoon and stir with a slicing motion rather than a circular motion.

maybe more water or when you cook it don't put the heat so high.

the noodles are perfect when you pick one out and throw it at the wall and it sticks

to make it not stick either put in a bit of oil or butter in the pot, and if its rubbery then cook it 4 longer.

Boil the noodles in hot water add a few drops of oil in that water and after boiling cool the noodles by adding cold water and now ur noodles will be soft and non sticky

LOL get a rubber chicken and you're all set!!

never ever have i used oil or any kind of fats in the pasta i cook, let the water boil rapidly with a pinch of salt, add your pasta and as soon as its soft enuff to push fully into the water without breaking you can start stirring from side to side with a FORK, if you see a couple sticking gently slowly lift them from the water and let them slide back into the pot. try and put the pasta between the prongs so as the water gets between the stuck ones the prong help ease it if the other. but make sure when u add ur pasta to turn down only a little so its more simmering/boiling. make sure to stir regulary while cooking.

Sounds like you added the pasta when the water was not yet hot enough. Has to be bubbling vigorously!
