Pasta heated in the skillet with sauce has a vastly different and superior flavor and texture compared with pasta that is simply sauced on the plate. No matter how great a sauce you can make, if you don't sauce your pasta correctly, you're missing out on one of life's greatest pleasures. Conversely, even a so-so jarred marinara sauce can be improved upon by finishing it off right. Here's how to properly sauce your pasta, step by step.

    In my view, this is why spaghetti leftovers are often superior to first day… The sauce has been marinating the noodles over night

    I swear pasta water is magic. Once we started heating our pasta with the sauce with the pasta water everything changed. The pasta water itself can turn store bought into amazing

    Different, yes. I wouldn’t say superior though. The balance is very different when it comes to certain dishes like spaghetti.

      Yea I didn’t like the original title, but learned something and thought it could get some discussion going. What do you like to do?

    Forget all that and just cook the pasta in the sauce!

        It’s the only spaghetti I make nowadays. Best texture and flavor.

    Funny. This is pretty close to how I serve pasta. Cook the noodles, drain, heat the sauce in the noodle pan, add the noodles, mix and serve. Except I do it to only use one pan rather than any sense of correctness. I always assumed I was doing it “wrong”.

    There is more then one way to do something. Generally when someone tells you there is only one way to do something it’s because they are opinionated and stubborn. They are usually the first type of people I ignore.
