Tips for Cooking Spaghetti

- To make sure the spaghetti cooks evenly, stir it occasionally while it is cooking.

- Don't overcook the spaghetti. It should be al dente, which means it should be firm to the bite.

- If you are not going to serve the spaghetti right away, you can store it in a colander in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

- When you are ready to serve the spaghetti, reheat it in a saucepan with a little bit of water until it is warm.
