AFTER the pasta is done, you could add a knob of butter to make sure they don't stick at that point, and it gives a nice taste. But trust me, the oil in the water is only necessary if you don't have a big pot, or don't know how to cook it (ie. put pasta in the water before it boils etc). |
You can do it either way. I worked in a Kitchen many years ago with a Sicilian family. They taught me many forms of cooking pasta and sauces. You don't ever have to add oil or butter to the pasta. Once it is done cooking you take it out of the pot and pour cold water on the pasta to stop the ooking and keep the noodles from sticking
