pasta with garlic

why was my pasta clumpy? did I not put enough oil when I sauteed it with the garlic and the oil in the pan?!

Re: pasta with garlic

Did you put oil in the water when you were cooking the pasta?

clumpy

how long did you cook the pasta for?

Re: pasta with garlic

not clumpy but it was sticking to it -

are you supposed to rinse the pasta after you strain it?

Re: pasta with garlic

personally i think it gets dryer when you saute it in the pan--- after i drain the pasta i put it back in the pot and then add my oil and sauted garlic in there and give it a good mix-- also did you use whole wheat pasta or regular pasta??..... i think it works best with rigatoni and penne.... just my opinion tho!!! HTH!!!
