This is how you make the best spaghetti, its my families secret recipe!. We call it daddy's spaghetti!. So you boil your spaghetti, dump the water out, then put the heat on lo and put a little less than a half stick of butter!. I know that you cant eat cheese, but if there is some sort of fake one, then get like parmesean cheese and just put like 3/4 cups of that!. I hope it taste yummy!. I you cant eat the cheese, or cant find it!. Just use the butter, im sure it would taste good!. Good luck, i always love hearing people respect animals so much!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Giada Delaurentis recommends NOT using oil in the water because the sauce just slides off the noodles if you do!. I tried it, and as long as you stir the spaghetti noodles while they boil on a fairly regular basis, they don't stick to each other too much, and she's right about sauce sticking better!.

After they sit in the colander without being served, THEN you have a sticky mess on your hands, but hopefully if people are hungry enough, there won't be much leftover!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

butter or oil!?

you should never use either!.!.!.!.putting butter or oil in the water puts a coating on the pasta!.!.!.when you drain it, then put sauce on it, it's just gonna run off to some extent!.!.

the proper way is: boil water, a pinch of salt!.!.!.that's it!.!.!.

strain it good!.!.!.(cook aldente)!.!.!.add your sauce!.

i've never heard of adding either when boiling pasta, and i'm italian!! lol AND i worked in an italian restaurant for 8 years

really tho, when we make it, we just add a little salt for taste!. so long as you stir it regularly (like once every few minutes) it wont stick at allWww@FoodAQ@Com

You don't boil in oil you fry or saute, you boil in water!. If you are talking about sauteing yes you can use butter but be aware that the butter will burn faster than oil so you have to watch!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I doubt it, the boiling point of butter is way less than water, along with the fact that it would taste disgusting and possibly be the un healthiest thing ever created!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

sure, why not!? using a bit of oil in water boiling the spaget keeps it from clumping, as long as you rinse it afterwards!.!.!.!.butter will do the same, it also contains oil!.!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
