--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  16      cups          water
   4      teaspoons     salt
   1      pound         fresh pasta
 

Preparation:

Basics for new cooks: In large pot, cover and bring water and salt to full rolling boil. Stir in pasta, separating pieces; return to boil and boil, uncovered and stirring occasionally, for 1-3 minutes or until tender but firm. Drain well. Tip: If a sauce is to be served on pasta, do not rinse. The starch on the surface of the pasta will allow the sauce to cling to the pasta.
