It's good to add a pinch of salt and a few drops of olive oil into the water when cooking pasta. The olive oil is especially useful, because it makes sure that the pasta doesn't stick together when boiling it, so you don't ruin it when you take it out.
Of course
a plain pasta is when the pasta is boiled only with salt and no sauces will be added in it.
Nothing. The salt you add to pasta adds flavor to the pasta. You'd still have pasta that looks and tastes exactly like pasta, just with less salt in it. There is a misconception that salt reduces the boiling point of water, when in fact the opposite is true.
Adding a little salt to the boiling water gives pasta a little taste or flavor.

Adding salt sticking of pasta and dissolution of starch are avoided.
yes the salt raises the temperature to boil faster
Pasta by itself, e.g. straight out to the box, has almost no salt at all. However, most of the sauces that people put on pasta, such as tomato-based sauces, cheese-based sauces, meat-stock-based sauces, etc. have high salt contents which means that the resulting pasta dish could have very high salt content.
1. Bring salted water to a boil 2. Put pasta in water 3. Boil until cooked You can even skip the salt. Thicker pasta takes longer to cook than thinner spaghetti. It is ready to eat when it feels right for you to eat.
boil water on the stove, but sprinkle salt in the water when its boiling, after it boils add the pasta.
