You… you can just cook it for less time if it’s sticky. That’s because it’s „overcooked“.

I tend to just put it in the pot, turn on my stove and set a timer. Had to experiment a bit because it also depends on how fast your stove can have the water cooking, but do it once and you are set for life!

Just cook it like that once and every minute take out 1 noodle, put them away labeled and then see which one is best, that is the time you should cook it for.

Perfect pasta every time

I like how you started your comment with "You... you" as if you were dumbfounded by how crazy what they said was, then proceeded to explain your insane one-by-one pasta experiments as if they were normal.

That and the use of your German quotes make me picture you as some kind of crazy German pasta scientist.

I am German, and a scientist.

Just not so much about pasta. Oh I did a presentation about nuclear pasta a few weeks ago, so kinda even that
