Basically all you did was rinse your spaghetti after you cooked it. You removed the starch which makes the sauce stick. When you do this the pasta becomes waxy and the sauce will run off. Contrary to popular reading, I quit rinsing my pasta after cooking, with the exception of elbow noodles. If you overcook your pasta, you're not allowing it to absorb that last bit of moisture out of the sauce. Best way to avoid watery sauce is to take your pasta out of the boiling water when it is not completely cooked (this is called "al dente"), then, without rinsing it, finish your pasta in the hot sauce until you reach the apropriate doneness.

Can you describe how spaghetti tastes?

Spaghetti on its own is pretty tasteless, that's why it's usually served with a rich sauce. e.g. bolognese sauce, which is fried garlic, fried onion, fried minced beef and a tin tomato sauce . I know everything is fried but if you use olive oil it's not too bad for you and is very tasty.

Is there anything that will make a tart spaghetti sauce sweeter?

A dash of sugar will do as will a very tiny bit of baking soda. Soda decreases the acid of the tomatoes and that's why it works. Be aware that when you add the soda, the sauce will foam up for a bit but if you stir it, it will eventually go back to normal.


How much the prices of spaghetti?

If you plan on going out to eat spaghetti, the prices can vary anywhere from about $6 to $30 for a plate of spaghetti, depending on how nice the restaurant is where you are dining. If you plan on making the spaghetti at home, here are some grocery prices to go by: Referring to the Spaghetti sauce alone, a 26 ounce can of Hunts spaghetti sauce at a Food Town Store in Texas, USA, was on sale on February 27, 2009 for 99 cents. The regular price was about $1.99. You can purchase spaghetti sauce at any grocery store in Texas for between $0.99 and $5 (for the gourmet expensive kind). I usually add some ground beef to the spaghetti sauce, because my husband likes it with more meat. Ground beef is about $1.99 a pound on sale at Food Town, and about $3 a pound when it is not on sale. Referring to the noodles alone, I purchased a 24 ounce bag of Skinner spaghetti noodles at a Food Town Store in Texas, USA, on sale on February 27, 2009 for 99 cents. The regular price was about $1.25, and you can also get a generic brand of spaghetti noodles on sale for about 77 cents. That is really all you need for spaghetti, but I usually eat mine with some Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top, and a slice of thick bread on the side. Parmesan cheese in this same area costs about $1.50 for a 3-4 ounce container, or about $2.50 to $4 for a 8 ounce container.
